(Dedicated to my friend Boris) Children of the world, well do it
Well meet on endless shores
Making sandcastles and floating our boats
While people fight and defend their point of view
Forever putting on masks that are new
Well swing the tide of time and do it.
Children of the world, well do it
With song and dance and innocent bliss
And the soft caress of a loving kiss
Well do it.
While traders trade and haggle their price
And politicians try so hard to be nice
Well meet on endless shores and floating our boats
Well do it.
While lawyers argue and doctors treat
Stockbrokers quote the price on meat
While preachers preach and ring the bell
Carpetbaggers with something to sell
Well sing and dance in innocent bliss
With the soft caress of a loving kiss
Well do it
Meeting on endless shores
Making sandcastles and floating our boats
Well do it.
Well ride a rainbow, a cloud, a storm
Flying in the wind, well change our form
Well touch the stars, embrace the moon
Well break the barrier and be there soon
While architects plan their buildings high
And trade unions raise their hue and cry
While boardroom squabbles generate heat
And in secret places dealers meet
Well sing and dance in innocent bliss
With the soft caress of a loving kiss
Well do it.
While philosophers grapple and continue to tackle
Endless dilemmas of body and mind
Physicists wander, continue to ponder
Perennial questions of space and time
Archaeologists survey, continue to dig
Bygone treasures small and big
Psychologists probe, analyze the tears
Of hysterical notions, phobias, fears
While priests take confession
In a serious session
And people struggle
In the hustle and bustle
In the noise and din
On the meaning of sin
Well touch the stars, embrace the moon
Break the barrier, arrive there soon
Ride the rainbow, the cloud, the storm
Flying in the wind, changing our form
Children of the world, well do it
With song and dance and innocent bliss
The soft caress of a loving kiss
Well do it.
