Where Do the Children Play?
Well, I think it's fine building jumbo planes
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Yes, get what you want to if you want
'Cause you can get anything
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well, you roll on roads over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads pumping petrol gas
And you make them long, and you make them tough
But they just go on and on, and it seems that you
can't get off
Oh, I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well, you've cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air
But will you keep on building higher
Till there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live and will you tell us
when to die?
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
