They are young and they're kids
|
and believe what they see
|
To do what they've been told
|
And so they walk away with open eyes
|
|
Some are eight or nine or ten
|
And they die like a fly, and no one knows
|
Who they are, they're smaller than the gun they load
|
|
See their eyes open wide
|
They died before they ever cried
|
|
They die in the streets and they die in the fields
|
When they do what they've been told
|
But now they're lying dead
|
Their eyes are closed
|
|
Some are eight or nine or ten
|
And they die like a fly and no one knows
|
Who they are, they're smaller than the gun they load
|
|
See their eyes open wide, they died before they ever cried
|
Who taught them how, how to pray
|
Who told them they're in paradise when they're gonna die
|
|
They are blind and they can't fight
|
They want war
|
They are blind and they can't fight
|
They want war
|
They are blind and they can't fight
|
They want war
|
They are blind and they can't fight
|
They want war
|
They are blind and they can't fight
|
They want war
|
They are blind and they can't fight
|
They want war...
|
|
You're gonna pay the price, you little devil in disguise
|
|
For taking life with no regard, you'll go to hell
|
And there you'll burn
|
|
Children in the battlefield, please don't go
|
|
Little birds with fluttering hearts, please don't go
|
