Songtekst
Everything they do, everything they say,
any view they may hold, every game they play,
they've learnt from us.
We, who set the limits;
we, who make the rules;
we, who hold the reins.
Every part they act, every rule they break,
everything they reject, every mistake,
they owe to us.
We, who educate them,
we, the ons they trust,
but we tend to blame them.
Chorus - Part I
For the things that go wrong, for the wars and the bombs,
for the sins and the crimes, the defects of our time.
[instrumental]
Chorus - Part II
They're the unaccountable,
they're the irresponsible,
they're our vulnerable,
innocent children.
Children of the past, children of the present.
Wilfully misled by beloved parents.
We the grown-ups, willing to beget them,
we're the ones they trust.
Why are we the ones that blame them?
chorus I + II
