O Cildren Songtext / Lyric

Pass me that lovely little gun
My dear, darling one
The cleaners are coming, one by one
You don´t even want to let them start
They are knocking now upon your door
They measure the room, they know the score
They´re mopping up the butcher´s floor
Of your broken little hearts o children Forgive us now for what we´ve done
It started out as a bit of fun
Here, takes these before we run away
The keys to the Gulag

O children
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
Children
Rejoice, rejoice

Here comes Frank and poor old Jim
They´re gathering round
with all my friends
We´re older now, the light is dim
And you are only just beginning

O children

We have the answer to all your fears
It´s short, it´s simple, it´s crystal dear
It´s round about, it´s somewhere here
Lost amongst our winnings

O children
Lift up your voice, lift up your voice
Children
Rejoice, rejoice
The cleaners have done their job on you
They´re hip to it, man,they´re in the groove
They´ve hosed you down, you´re good as new
The´re lining up to inspect you

O children

Poor old Jim´s white as a ghost
He´s found the answer that we lost
We´re all weeping now, weeping because
There ain´t nothing we can do to protect you

O children
Lift up your voice, lift uo your voice
Children
Rejoice, rejoice

Hey little train! We are all jumping on
The train that goes to the Kingdom
We´re happy, Ma, we´re having fun
And the train ain´t even left the station

Hey little train, wait for me
I once was blind but now I see
Hey little train! Wait for me!
Have you left a seat for me?
Is that such a strech of the imagination ?

Hey little train! Wait for me!
I was held in chains but now I´m free
I´m hanging in there, don´t you see
In this process of elimination

Hey little train! We are all jumping on
The train that goes to the Kingdom
We´re happy, Ma, we´re having fun
It´s beyond my wildest expectation

Hey little train! We are all jumping on
The train that goes to the Kingdom
We´re happy, Ma, we´re having fun
And the train ain´t even left the station
