Where Do The Children Play?

I have been busy the last few days, and I didn't really have time to write anything. I don't have much time now either, so I figured I might post some lyrics I like.

Where Do The Children Play? - Cat Stevens

Well I think its fine, building jumbo planes.
Or taking 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 weve come a long way,
Were 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 that you cant get off.

Oh, I know weve come a long way,
Were changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Well youve cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air.
But will you keep on building higher
til theres 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?

I know weve come a long way,
Were changing day to day,
But tell me, where do the children play?

Nothing more to add, it speaks for itself.

Take care and see you soon.

Coffee Guy, I remember this song and had the albums, Tea for the Tillerman, and another one that had a moonshadow on it, or something of the like. Wish I still had them.

Hope all is well with you.
