Let’s All Save the Children Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's mighty hard when you're two years old
In a world that's torn apart
And the nip of human kindness
Leaves our hunger in your heart
You're reaching out for something
But there's nothing you can do
What you need
Is someone reaching out for you

[Chorus]
Let's all save the children
And the time is now
Let's all save the children
And the time is now

[Verse 2]
You won't get help from the man next door
'Cause the man next door don't care
His heavy heart remembers
When he was lying there
We nursed him with our anger
And we raised him with our hate
When we gonna learn to love
What we create
[Chorus]
Everybody save the children
Oh, the time is now
(Let's all save the children) Oh, save the children
And the time is now
And the time is now

[Verse 3]
You're kicking at the crate
'Cause you're trying to be free
I hope that God does work
With a let it be

[Chorus/Outro]
(Let's all save the children) Everybody save the children
(And the time is now) Woah, time is now (shut up)
(Let's all save the children) Oh, save the children
(And the time is now) And the time is down
(Let's all save the children) Let's all save the children
(And the time is now) The time is now
(Let's all save the children) C'mon, let's all, let's all save the children, save the children
(And the time is now) For the time, you know it's
Your child
My child
Everybody's children
Save the children
Now
