Lyrics
Billy skipped school again
Lookin' like a fool again
What a little waste
For a taste of a big boys life
I'm scared for the children
Computer screens and magazines
Manufactured hopes and dreams
Playin' in a concrete box
'Cause mother's got her shows to watch
Yeah, I'm scared for the children
'Cause this is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
Yeah, this is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with?
I suppose we'll never know
Processed greens and man-made meat
Runnin' out of things to eat
Little boys havin' way too much fun
Playin' with a big boys gun
Yeah, I'm scared for the children
And on the day the last bird dies
There won't be a drop from their big square eyes
An old man with his eyes like glass
Kisses the last blade of grass
Yeah, I'm scared for the children
'Cause this is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
Yeah, this is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with?
I suppose we'll never know
'Cause this is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
Yeah, this is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with?
Well, I suppose we'll all never know
No respect for anyone
Why would they after what we've done?
What an example we have set
What a planet we have left
Let's be there for these children
