Rescue The Children Lyrics by Junior Murvin

Signs & Wonders

[Verse 1]
Everyday you take up the daily paper
All you read is about war
War over here, war over there
War, war is always at land
Your simplest world is a ball of confusion
And there ain't nothing but confusion
Confusion in the land, in the air
Confusion everywhere
[Chorus]
Somebody got to rescue the children
Somebody got to rescue the children
Somebody got to give dem helping hand
[Verse 2]
White against Black everyday
Looting, shooting, going to jail
Lord, it's a dirty, dirty shame
The poor people of the ghettos
They really can't do no better
The men of high society
Sit at home sippin' his coffee
You see he really don't give a damn
Because he has his share already
[Chorus]
Somebody got to rescue the children
Somebody got to give dem helping hand
[Verse 3]
Little children going to school
Nobody to set this golden rule
Somebody got to set an example for the children to follow
They're the people of tomorrow (Oh Lord)
[Chorus]
The cost of living is rising high
And only the strong will survive
It's gettin' higher higher, higher, higher, higher
Higher higher higher higher, higher
It's gettin' higher higher, higher, higher, higher
Higher higher higher higher, higher
It's gettin' higher higher, higher, higher, higher
Higher higher higher higher, higher
[Verse 4]
Man judging man by the clothes he wear
What the hell is going on down here?
This world ain't what it's supposed to be
There's no love, no unity
God, come down and kill this situation that we living in
[Outro]
Somebody got to rescue the children
Somebody
