Lyrics Scared for the children Jeff Beck

Scared for the children


Billy skipped school again looking like a fool again
What a little waste for a taste of a big boy's life
I'm scared for the children
Computer screens and magazines
Manufactured hopes and dreams
Playing in a concrete box 'cause mother's got her shows to watch
I'm scared for the children

This is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
This is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with
Suppose we'll never know
Processed greens and man made meat
Running out of things to eat
Little boys having way too much fun playing with a big boys gun
I'm scared for the children
And on the day the last bird dies
There won't be a drop from their big square eyes
An old man with his eyes just like glass
Kisses the last blade of grass
I'm scared for the children

This is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
This is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with
Suppose we'll never know

This is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
This is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with
Suppose we'll never know

No respect for anyone
Why would they after what we done
What an example we have set, what a planet we have left
Let's be there for these children

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics SCARED FOR THE CHILDREN of JEFF BECK is also present in the album Loud hailer (2016)
