The Children Lyrics
and we’ll give you trouble
if we dont like what you’re doing
and we think that it is wrong.
Now we’re satisfied,
but when we're not...
We are taking lives
and making drones.
it makes the child.
da da da da da
da da da da da.
not the youth,
not kids.
It’s not sound to pretend,
my friend,
this might just be the end.
Shadow life that sits outside your door…
We live inside your walls
and leak through floors.
it makes the child.
da da da da da
da da da da da.
excellent! I was looking for these. thanks. btw I think there are a few minor mistakes on the transcript above. may want to look into them.
We are children and we'll give you trouble If we don't like what you're doing And we thought forgetting is wrong
Now we're satisfied, but when we're not We are taking lives and making drones
That awful void we plant in front of us reclaims a child Dadadada dada dadada dadada dada Dadadada dada dadada dadada dada dadada
We are the children, not the youth, not kids But is not time to pretend, my friend This might just be the end
Shadow life that sits outside your doors Will live inside your walls, beneath your floors
That awful void we plant in front of us reclaims a child Dadadada dada dadada dadada dada Dadadada dada dadada dadada dada dadada
Pretty straight forward song. Great opener to the album. I love the ode to MGMT: "We are children, not THE YOUTH, not KIDS. It's not TIME TO PRETEND. Simply marvelous!
Going to point out the obvious,
"We are the children, not the youth, not kids But is not time to pretend, my friend This might just be the end"
reference to MGMT
Is the "my friend, this is the end" a Doors reference?
Huh? Looks like someone changed the correct lyrics to the lyrics of the next track "Ambling Alp". ya done goofed, Saladfingerz
