KIRSTY MACCOLL - Children Of The Revolution lyrics

coming out to play

Bombers ripped the night apart

and blew the school away

Some live on the south side

and they overlook the water

Some live on the north side

and they're looking at the border

And those children of the revolution

see the soldiers come

Smiling at the widows

as they take away the sons

Children of the revolution

shot downith a brand new gun

They're dropping down like flies

and in their eyes the images of

war are in their eyes

They've seen it all before

and know your lies

Won't keep their bellies full

In love and war there are no rules

Children of the revolution

getting off the boat

To face the ignorance and prejudice

that keep this land afloat

Children of the revolution

make a brand new start

Running through the rubble

of a thousand broken hearts

and in their eyes

All promises are broken in their eyes

The words that can't be spoken

and your lies

Don't keep their bellies full

In love and war there are no rules

But in their eyes

Murder comes by sea and from the skies

It's shiny and it's quick

to take their lives

And if it's cruel in love and war

there are no rules

Children of the revolution

coming out to play

Someone sells a gun and someone

blows them all away

Children of the revolution

sold out by the banks

Who swap the green upon the dollars

for the green upon the tanks

Children of the revolution

shot down by a brand new gun
