Children go run and jump and play you'll be men and women some day Then you'll have to leave your world of make believe now children Young carefree children Children need someone to understand children need someone to hold their hands yeah To cheer you when you're sad to spank you when you're bad Now children haughty naughty children
Ride goes before destruction the Holy Spirit goes before the fall Don't you know that we're all children and it's all for one and one for all Oh children call each other names children playing grown up games And the thing that's really sad we lose the faith we had When we were children loud proud children Were children clowns proud children
Children who think that they are grown children with children of their own From the cradle to the grave why must we all behave like children Lost lonely children
