Lyrics:
but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never
we're out of time
And it's slowly passing by ....right before our eyes
We are a rock revolving
Around a golden sun
We are a billion children rolled
Hushed were the glad hossanahs
The little children sang
The sun grew dark with mystery
The morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of the cross arose
the sun rising
Hope is the crisp sound of children laughing
Hope is when friends and foes get together
Get together singing songs of good times and freedom
appears
Picked through the summer by young and old
Whose earnings must last through
The winter's cold
By children who have stood with
Their backs bent down
gone down dung and evening come come
Already should be on your way
Caus when the sun gone down dung and evening come come
By your deeds you shall be paid
taking human life
Clouds go by children run
Gulls do nosedives in the sun
Water falling from a spout
Into wanting thirsty mouths
Black sun came
other like only children do We touched the sand
And moved the clouds with our arms
At will
We shouted at the suns and moons Surrounding us
Following
then
One that looked like two men
Glued up back to back
Called the children of the sun
And similar in shape and girth
Were the children of the earth
Sun of Man from Abraham
Brooklyn was my Bethelehem, I blessed the land with children
Keep a gun in hand, must understand my plan
you drown in
happened so quickly, so quick, by surprise
Right there in front of everyone's eyes
Greatest magic trick ever under the sun
Perfectly executed, skillfully
on a Singapore night
And the children start to fade
Knots in tummies, twisting tight
Just thinking of another day
Doing homework over breakfast,
Feeling tired by
a crumpled sun-baked stony road
Dusty wheels, leaning rusting in the sun
Snuff brown walls where Spanish lizards run
Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig
a crumpled sun-baked stony road
Dusty wheels, leaning rusting in the sun
Snuff brown walls where Spanish lizards run
Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig
prisoners of the night
Trust and love will lead the way
We are free
Yeah, I'm free to rock this mic to walk right in a dark night lighted by the sun (we
looked like two men glued back to back
Called the children of the sun
And similar in shape and girth were the children of the earth
They looked like two
a bit more,
just give me a little more time."
"My turn this time," she says.
"My children are growing up mad,
they never get anywhere."
This time she
A red priest broke into our classroom
Caught us children by attention
Listen closely to the words I speak
Lord knows if we'll ever, ever again meet
You can't catch me
I'll be gone by the time they come
You can't catch me
The war is already won
Even though the children have sold their guns
We
gone by the time they come
You can't catch me
The war is already won
Even though the children have sold their guns
We must remember the fallen ones
the engines pumping out children strangled by static from the noisy sun.
So won't you tell us what's brewing in your trenches?
Let us see what you've got hidden
(Words and Music by Joan Baez)
It's walking to the battleground that always makes me cry
I've met so few folks in my time who weren't afraid to die
Written by m.d. green.
The sun is shining the children smiling
As they walk along the golden sand
The chosen people have climbed the steeple
Please god forgive dem
Dem don't know how to live as one
They don't want listen
Dem don't want to live as one
Divide by color
Dem don't know how
