If you're driving through the country
On a lazy afternoon
Or you're watching your children playing after school
They seem to be so unaware
I know, I know
The things that they'll soon have to take care of
We've got to do something yeah, to save the children
Soon it will be their turn to try and save the world
Right now they seem to play such a small part of
The things that they'll soon be right at the heart of
My little Tommy, he said he wants to be a fireman
And little Mary she said she got to teach school
If we know all we say we know about the problems
Why can't we do something to try and solve them?
ย
We've got to do something to save the children
Soon it will be their turn to try and save the world
We've got to do something yeah, to save the children
To save the children
To save the children
