[Dolly Parton, Cat Stevens - Where Do the Children Play lyrics]
Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Get what you want to if you want
Because you can get anything
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads pumping petrol gas
And you make them long
And you make them tough
But they just go on and on
And it seems you can't get off
When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air
Will you keep on building higher
Till there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live
Will you tell us when to die?
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Get what you want to if you want
Because you can get anything
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads pumping petrol gas
And you make them long
And you make them tough
But they just go on and on
And it seems you can't get off
When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air
Will you keep on building higher
Till there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live
Will you tell us when to die?
