Bee Gees - And The Children Laughing
Ah......
Well, I been working up a fever trying to
straighten up the mess in my mind about this place
I can`t contain myself anymore
Can`t you see it`s written all over my face
Why don`t you get on your feet
It`s about time you got to think
what ever happened to peace
Well open your eyes and you`ll see children laughing,
voices singin` ,hearts a-beatin` ah.....
Your always talkin` right and talkin about
the world and it`s corruption and moral decay
But what you gonna do about it , nothing ,
`cause you`re more like children then children while they play
Why you`re so clean through and through you won`t shake hands
with a negro who`s maybe cleaner then you
Well listen around and you`ll hear children laughin` ,
voices singin` , hearts a-beatin` like they always do
So what`s wrong with you , ah...
You`re so blown up with anger about the world
You write the songs about
Yet you don`t even know your neighbors name
Now you want to go the the moon and live there
when you know it`ll only end up the same
How can he give you any gratitude,
with your endless sickenin` attitude
You strive to get ahead
but you leave each other dead
Can`t you see , children laughin` ,
voices singin` , hearts beatin` like they always do
So what`s wrong with you , ah...
Children laughin` , voices singin` hearts beatin`
Children laughin` , voices singin , (fade)
