Where Did the Children Go Lyrics

Where did the children go?
Somebody tell me 'cause I don't know

Was the day before Sunday (Yes, it was)
And all across the playground (Mmm-hmm)
Not a creature was stirring, no no
Not a single sound
And cars could pass on the street without ever blowing their horn
And all the sidewalks, they were empty
They looked raggedy and worn

Oh, where did all the children go?
Somebody tell me 'cause I don't know

Did they run away and hide
With our pollution in their minds?
Will they all return to haunt us
And fill our streets with crime?
Where did they go? (Where did they go?)
Where did the children go?

The sound of my footsteps (Yes, it did)
As I walked along (Mmm-hmm)
Played a dark, cold rhythm, yeah, now
Of a very sad song
Song with a melody that cried out in pain
And it echoed through each building again and again

Oh, where did all the children go?
Somebody tell me 'cause I don't know

Yesterday, the sound of happy voices you could hear
Now the streets are silent, and my heart is filled with fear

Where did they go? Where did the children go?
(Where did they go?)

Woo, thoughts began wonder (Yes, they did)
Over years gone by now (Mmm-hmm)
And all the games they used to play, yeah
It made me wanna cry
Where's all the cotton candy now?
And games like Kick the Can?
Oh, how the world has changed since I became a man

Where did all the children go?
Somebody tell me, ooh, 'cause I don't know

Did we drive them all away
With our deception and our lies?
Did we send them all away to die
With tears in their eyes?

Oh, where did the children go?
Somebody tell me, I wanna know
Where did they go? Where did they go?
Don't see 'em playing no more
Where did the children go? Where did they go?
Somebody tell me, I wanna know
I don't see 'em playing no more
Where did they go?
Somebody tell me, I wanna know
