LET THE CHILDREN SPEAK
Simple Minds


Time - way out of line 
A whole nation waits outside 
The rhythm of tomorrow 
They can dance away their sorrows tonight 
Lost - broken and scarred 
Prisoner waits outside with his lone heart beating 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 
Let the children - let the children speak 
Aims - dangerous games 
Their mother says one false move and we all get hurt 
I feel this sense of power I feel it every hour tonight 

Let's not get lazy tonight 
Things could get crazy cos 
One more kick and the door cracks open 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 

Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children 
Power to the powerless strength unto the weak 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 
I'm begging you now Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children 
Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 

Let's not get lazy tonight 
Things could get crazy cos 
One last kick and the door cracks open 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 

Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 
Things could get crazy tonight 
Let's not get lazy cos 
One last kick and the door cracks open 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 
I'm begging you now 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children 
Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 
The language of this world 
Let's not get lazy cos 
One false move and we all get hurt 
Let the children, let the children 
Let the children, let the children speak 

The language of this world 
Things could get crazy
