Well, I think it's fine, building jumbo planes
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Yes, 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
But tell me, where do the children play?
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Well, you roll on roads over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads, pumping petrol gas
And you make them long and you make them tough
But they just go on and on, and it seems that you can't get off
Oh, 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?
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Well, you've cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air
But 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) I know we've come a long way
(We're changing day) we're changing day to day
(But tell me, where) tell me, where do the children play?
Where do the children play?
Where do the children play?
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
