lyrics

play on little children
build your sandcastles high
paint the sky brilliant
and watch the clouds go by

as long as we live
there will always be war
man wants a little
then a little becomes a little more
you don't have to waste
your time on impossible dreams
man must destroy man
at least that's the way it seems

so play on little children
build your sandcastles high
paint the sky brilliant
and watch the clouds go by

walking down these blood streets
it's a sordid and surreal scene
there will always be hate
there will always be extremes
well i hope you will live
at least as free as i have
but i don't have too much hope
in the future, or what little is left

so play on little children
build your sandcastles high
paint the sky brilliant
watch the clouds go by

well i'm not old enough
to die before it begins
but sometimes i wish i was
because it's gonna be a hard life
