The second son

My father's wrong

It's got to be the easiest role on Earth

Just play around

Just   play   along

Enjoy the bounty   of my birth

So what's today's amusement

For   this second son

Which one shall I choose from

so many kinds of fun

Which one

I could ride one of the horses

Go and shoot some arrows

Take a sail on the royal barge

But standing in the shadows

Of these statues of the Pharaohs

I see the contrast couldn't be more stark

Their deeds forever known

In story song and stone

While I won't leave the faintest mark

Like the humblest of slaves

I won't leave the faintest mark

Footprints on the sand

Ripples on the river

Wispy drifting clouds

That blow across the desert sky

One day we are here

And the next we vanish

Vanish in the blink

Of an ibis' eye

We vanish in the blink

Of an ibis' eye

It's not that I want glory

Or the world to know my name

But maybe just to leave things

A little changed from when I came

But it's not my lot

Use what you've got

And all I am is

Footprints on the sand

Ripples on the river

Echoes of a sound

From a distant fading chime

One day we are here

Next I know we vanish

But I'm a fool

And so I like to fool myself

That I'm

Not just footprints on the sand

But someone who'll leave footprints

On the sands of time
