Somebodys Child
View ArtistLyrics
[Verse 1] Chaos parades the city streets Permanent carnival Mothers protect their families Inside apartment walls Electric heaven is looking down There's no one wearing a thorny crown [Chorus] In the new world, life is cheap In the new world, lies are deep In the new world, people forget When the bullets are flying wild Everybody's somebody's child Everybody's somebody's child [Verse 2] Floodwaters climb the burning shore The movie star wrings her hands Sitting aboard her private yacht Sailing away from land At the poker table they serve champagne There ain't no shelter now from the rain [Chorus] In the new world, life is cheap In the new world, lies are deep In the new world, people forget When the bullets are flying wild Everybody's somebody's child Everybody's somebody's child [Bridge] Frozen faces in a photograph Sent at the speed of light Looking away, a lonely girl Turns out her bedroom light She's barricaded by bags of pills It's war that's raging where peace signs kill [Outro] In the new world, young girls cry In the new world, young girls die In the new world, we all forget Once the cause of the death is filed Everybody's somebody's child Everybody's somebody's child Everybody's somebody's child
