Where Do The Children Play?

Neal Morse · Cover To Cover [2006]

Well, I think it's fine

Buildin' jumbo planes

Or takin' a ride

On a cosmic train

Switch on Summer

From a slot machine

Yes, get what you want to, if you want,

'Cause you can get anything.



I know we've come a long way

We're changin' day to day,

But tell me, where do the children play?



Well, you roll on roads

Over fresh green grass

For your lorry loads

Pumpin' petrol gas

And you make them long

And you make them tough,

But they just go on and on,

and it seems like

That you can't get off.



I know we've come a long way.

We're changin' day to day,

But tell me, where do the children play?

Where do the children play?

Tell me

Tell me now

Tell me now



Well, you've cracked the sky.

'Scrapers fill the air,

But will you keep on buildin' higher

'Til there's no more room up there?

Will you make us laugh?

Oh, Will you make us cry?

Will you tell us when to live?

Will you tell us when to die?



I know we've come a long way

We're changin' day to day, day to day

But tell me, where do the children play?

Where do the children play?



I know we've come a long way

We're changin' day to day, day to day

But tell me, where do the children play?

Where do the children play?

Where do the children play?

Where do the children play?

Where do the children play?
