Children

[Verse 1]
Children
Go run and jump and play
You'll be
Men and women some day
Then, you'll have to leave
Your world of make believe
Now, children
Young (Children)
Carefree (Children)
Children

[Verse 2]
Children (Children)
Need someone who understands
Children
Need someone to hold their hands
To cheer them when they're sad
To spank them when they're bad
Children
Haughty (Children)
Naughty (Children)
Children

[Bridge]
Pride goes before destruction
The Holy Spirit goes before the fall
Don't you know that we're all children
And it's all for one, and one for all? Yeah

[Verse 3]
Children (Children)
Call each other names
Children
Playin' little grown-up games
And the thing that's really sad
Is we lose the faith we had
When we were
Children
Loud (Children)
Proud (Children)
Children

[Verse 4]
Children (Children)
Who think that they are grown
Children
With children of their own
From the cradle to the grave
Why must we all behave
Like Children? (Na-na, na-na, na, na, na-na, na-na, na, na)
Lost (Children)
Lonely (Children)
Children

[Outro]
Lost, lonely, children
Loud, proud, children
Lonely, lost, children
Haughty, naughty children
