Lyrics

You don't have to go to school today, Omar, spread your wings, you can fly away Don't worry about those books today, it's time to turn the page, ooh the playground's calling The sun is fading, shadows cascading, toy soldiers are waiting You don't have to wash your hands today, Omer, heaven's colored in finger paints It'd be nice to just play all day, turn those pages into paper planes, ooh the playground's calling The sun is fading, shadows cascading, toy soldiers are waiting G.I. Joe wants to play, all the kids have gone away G.I. Joe wants to play, all the kids have gone away When you were three, did you dream of the things that you'd be Like a spaceman or a star on the stage and the screen When you were four, did you think you'd be caught in a war Monsters and bombs, little boys never more You won't hear my song today, Merrie Melodies have gone away No candles, no cakes, no more birthdays or holidays No toys, no games, no more choo-choo trains No Hook, no Pan, no more Never Never Land Ooh the playground's calling The sun is fading, shadows cascading, toy soldiers are waiting G.I. Joe wants to play, all the kids have gone away G.I. Joe wants to play, all the kids have gone away G.I. Joe wants to play G.I. Joe wants to play, all the kids have gone away Oh, please won't you let those children live Oh, please won't you let those children live Oh, please won't you let those children live Oh, please won't you let those children live
