Warchild

I'll take you down to that bright city mile,

There to powder your sweet face and paint on a smile

That will show all of the pleasures and none of the pain

When you join my explosion and play with my games



WarChild dance the days, and dance the nights away.



No unconditional surrender: no armistice day

Each night I'll die in my contentment and lie by your grave

While you bring me water and I give you wine

Let me dance in your tea-cup and you shall swim in mine.



WarChild dance the days, and dance the nights away.



Open your windows and I'll walk through your doors.

Let me live in your country - let me sleep by your shores



WarChild dance the days, and the nights away.
