Barry Mcguire - Child Of Our Times Lyrics

Send "Child Of Our Times" ringtone to your cell

take your first look around

And see the world you're coming into

Ah have a good cry

I sympathize with you

Ah forever gone is your serenity

For the fleeing fawn

There's no sacred tree

They'll try to make

Hypocrisy of your heredity

So choose your views

Most carefully

The future's hope is on

What you turn out to be

Child of our times

Child of our times

Product of our society

What will you grow up to respect?

Tell me what will you

Grow up to protect?

In your burning turning mind

You are your own worst enemy

Every minute you're alive

You're that much closer to death

So try to make the most of

Each precious breath

Ah don't wave banners

You don't believe parasite

You'll have to discover

Your own wrong and right

Just color your perspectives

Black and white

They'll label you weird

But that's all right

They'll thank you in the end

After they've seen the light

Child of our times

Child of our times

Product of our society

What will you grow up to respect?

Tell me what will you

Grow up to protect?

In your burning turning mind

You are your own worst enemy

Ah the heroes of the past

Were all good guys

But the leaders of the next war

No one will memorize

Only the orphan child

Will sound the cries

Of a mistake that could

Never be rectified

I'm telling you now

'cause you can stop it if you try

Child of our times

Child of our times

Product of our society

What will you grow up to respect?

Tell me what will you

Grow up to protect?

In your burning turning mind

You are your own worst enemy

Child of our times
