Where Do the Children Play? [T2 Version] lyrics

Well, I think it's fine

Building jumbo planes

Or taking a ride

On a cosmic train

Switch on summer

From a slot machine

And 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

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 'em tough

But they just go on and on

And it seems that you can't get off

I know we've come a long way

We're changing day to day

But tell me, where do the children play?

(Where do the children play?)

(Where do the children play?)

Well, you cracked the sky

Scrapers fill the air

But will you keep on building higher

Till there's no more room up there?

And will you make us laugh

Will you make us cry?

And will you tell us when to live

Will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way

We're changing day to day

Tell me, where do the children play?

(Where do the children play?)

(Where do the children play?)
