Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes
Taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Get what you want, if you want 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
Buy a lorry load, pumping petrol gas
And you make them long, and you make them tough
Ah, 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
Tell me, where do the children play?
Will you pack the sky, scrape the sky again?
Will you keep on building higher 'til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
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?
