Children Of Dust |
It started off as innocent fun |
A stranger in a foreign land |
A boy with a gun and no name |
Seeks compassion with a girl in hand |
When your conscience taps you on the shoulder |
You’ll be a little wiser and older |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Well, not even we can save the children of dust |
Task completed but you lost face |
Returning home the conquering savior |
The little girl who lives next door |
Takes a shine to your cool behavior |
When your conscience taps you on the shoulder |
You’ll be a little wiser and older |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Well, not even we can save the children of dust |
A steady job and a nice clean house |
Part of your parents' scheming |
The past will always catch you out |
In 'Nam a child is screaming |
When your conscience taps you on the shoulder |
You’ll be a little wiser and older |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Well, not even we can save the children of dust |
Youth has gone now, the past is settled |
You’ll pay for that night of lust |
A million miles, a promise |
And a child of the dust |
When your conscience taps you on the shoulder |
You’ll be a little wiser and older |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Not even we can save the children of dust |
Well, not even we can save the children of dust |
