Song Lyrics

Yeah, revolution in their minds, the children start to march
Oh, against the world in which they have to live and all the hate that's in their hearts
Yeah, they're tired of being pushed around and told just what to do
Yeah, they'll fight the world until they've won and hell comes flowing through, yeah
In Los Angeles, 1969, they shot, stabbed and bludgeoned nine people to death
Committing one of the most heinous crimes in history.
Yeah, children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
Oh, will the sun rise up tomorrow bringing peace in any way
Yeah, must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear
Yeah, can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear
In Los Angeles, 1969, they shot, stabbed, and bludgeoned nine people to death
Committing one of the most heinous crimes in history.
Yeah, so you children of the world, yeah, listen to what I say
Oh, if you want a better place to live in, spread the words today
Yeah, show the world that love is still alive, you must be brave
Yeah, or you children of today are children of the grave, yeah
