Wake Up Children |
| People, won’t you listen |
| To the story I wanna tell |
| About this world we’re living in |
| I hope you listen well |
| We’re avoiding all the problems |
| And we’ve thrown away the truth |
| With brothers fighting brothers |
| The devils on the loose |
| We’ve lost the word humanity |
| Yes, in God we trust |
| The things we called invincible |
| Have now all turned to dust |
| Yeah, yeah |
| I see a world that’s hungry |
| A world that full of fears |
| Reaching out for happiness |
| For drowning in their tears |
| We’ve polluted all the waters |
| The food and, yes, the air |
| We’re killing our great mother earth |
| Does anybody care |
| Yeah, do you care |
| Ooh, yeah |
| Wake up, children, oh, yeah |
| Wake up, children |
| And what about the children |
| And the generations to come |
| Will they look back on our history |
| And curse the things we’ve done |
| All it takes is a decision |
| And it’s one we’ll have to make |
| To save our world and all mankind |
| I hope it’s not too late |
| Yeah, not too late |
| Wake up, children, ooh, yeah |
| Wake up, children |
| I wanna talk to you this evening, children |
| (Wake up, children) |
| I wanna tell you a story that you need to hear |
| (Wake up, children) |
| Yeah, brother to brother, can’t you hear me talking |
| (Wake up, children) |
| Sister to sister, can’t you hear me talking |
| (Wake up, children) |
| Nation to nation, can’t you hear me talking |
| (Wake up, children) |
| Yeah, we’ve got to love one another… |
