Damn Society....
Someone ripped away their innocence
and forced them to take advantage
of the simple things in life
and leave the rest behind.
Someone made them different
and changed their point of veiw
made them think that they were superior
to the likes of me and you
Someone made them angry
and took their rights away
to do what they want, when they want
it has to be that way these days.
Someone gave them them dignity
and taught them self respect
They took away their silver spoons
blue skies and full moons...
And taught them the real meaning
of LIFE...
Let's take our children back!
and forced them to take advantage
of the simple things in life
and leave the rest behind.
Someone made them different
and changed their point of veiw
made them think that they were superior
to the likes of me and you
Someone made them angry
and took their rights away
to do what they want, when they want
it has to be that way these days.
Someone gave them them dignity
and taught them self respect
They took away their silver spoons
blue skies and full moons...
And taught them the real meaning
of LIFE...
Let's take our children back!
