Little girls go float upstream
|
Some a' them never comin' back
|
We are powerless to stop them
|
As they vanish from our sight
|
|
Little boys dig tunnels
|
Into the ground they go
|
Hundreds of them, disappear
|
Little soldiers on patrol
|
|
Singing
|
|
Don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
And we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
|
Underneath the floorboards
|
In between the walls
|
Ev'rywhere there's filled with children
|
Say good-bye to boys and girls
|
|
"We promise to be better"
|
Said the folks at home
|
"But it really doesn't matter"
|
Said their daughters and their sons
|
|
Singing
|
|
Don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
And we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
And we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
And we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
|
Free from greed and hunger
|
Free from hate and war
|
Thousands of them altogether
|
We are here and
|
There they are
|
|
Singing
|
|
Don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
And we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
And we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
No we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
No we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
No we don't want
|
Don't want
|
Don't want to be part of your world
|
No we don't ...
