[Intro. (Percussion and Electric Piano)]
|
|
I can see a boy of fourteen
|
He's got a rifle in his hand
|
He's dying to defend his desert land
|
|
He's got an arm around his father
|
Another arm around his gun
|
Must the child in the father die so young?
|
|
There's a teenage girl in Belfast
|
Playing in the street
|
Her brother plays a different game and he's turning up the heat
|
|
On the soldiers around the corner
|
And the powers overseas
|
And who are they to ruin lives like these?
|
|
'Cos they're yours and they're mine
|
They're yours and mine
|
'Cos they're yours and they're mine
|
Yours and mine
|
|
[Instrumental (Soprano Sax)]
|
|
So you think that it's so easy
|
Just to let I pass you by
|
You watch T.V. and pretend it's all a lie
|
|
But you know there is no Third World
|
It happens to us all
|
There's just one world and the kids are the first to fall
|
|
And they're yours and they're mine
|
They're yours and mine
|
And they're yours and they're mine
|
They're yours and mine
|
They're yours and they're mine
|
Yours and mine
|
|
And she raised him for something
|
Better than a bullet
|
He's a every mother's son
|
|
And she raised him for something
|
Better than a bullet
|
He's a every mother's son
|
|
And she raised him for something
|
Better than a bullet
|
He's a every mother's son
|
|
His life's hanging from a trigger
|
I won't to pull it
|
|
'Cos they're yours and they're mine
|
They're yours and mine
|
'Cos they're yours and they're mine
|
They're yours and mine
|
'Cos they're yours and they're mine
|
They're yours and mine
|
'Cos they're yours and they're mine
|
Yours and mine
|
