Music Song Lyrics

Child Of The Universe Lyrics

I'm a child
Of South Africa
I'm a child
Of Vietnam.
I'm a child
Of Northern Ireland
I'm a small boy
With blood on his hands.
Yes, I'm a child
Of the universe
Yes, I'm a child
Of the universe
You can see me on the T.V. every night
Always there to join in someone else's fight.
I never asked to be born
And I don't ask to die
I'm an endless dream
A dream machine that
Cannot reason why.
Yes, I'm a child
Of the universe
Yes, I'm a child
Of the universe
You can see me on the T.V. every day
I'm the child next door three thousand miles away.
(Repeat once)
James Harvest Barclay Child Of The Universe
