Where Do the Children Play - John Jones

Well I think it’s fine, flying jumbo planes

Or taking a ride on a Kingston train

You know I’ve been to school

But, Lord, I’m such a fool

And it isn’t my fault, 'cause I followed your rules

I know we came a long way

We’re changing day to day

But tell me

Where do the children play?

Where do they play?

Where do they play?

We’ve been building roads from way back in the past

And they disintegrate

Lord, and it happens so fast

Cars fall apart, but you don’t care

And the people complain, but the holes stay there

Repeat Chorus

And there’s a tax increase with every crop decrease

And we learn to fight one another

But you tell us that you stand for peace

'Cause you work in the day

And you sleep at night

'Cause you live in the dark and you think it’s light

Repeat Chorus
