Our Children

Published Jul 18, 2011

Too many of our children are dying


Too many of our children are dying


Too many mothers are crying


Because...


Too many of our children are dying

Shot and stabbed and slashed by thugs


Killed in drive-bys over turf and drugs

Victims of guns left lying around


And of dangerous school playgrounds

Mauled by dogs and firebombed in houses


Done in by parents settling grouses

Incinerated while left unsupervised


Buried after taking their own young lives

Cut down by motor vehicles and by pedophiles


It's a treacherous world out there for today's child

Too many of our children are dying


Far too many of our children are dying


Too many mothers are crying


Because...


Too many of our children are dying
