The Choir Album: Chase the Kangaroo Track: Children of Time
Children of Time Lyrics
Columbus sailed across the sea To trouble our theology What goes up still comes down But where is heaven if the world is round? The Cosmonauts were first in space To look for God and find no trace With a killer cloud or reason for rhyme The devil enlightens the children of time
The children of time
When boys and girls love what they feel They "lick the earth" and swear it's real With a silver syringe before bells chime The devil entices the children of time
The children of time
With a fast injection For the children
Beware proud creatures of the night Who close eternal windows right With a triple cheer at the scene of the crime The devil endorses the children of time
The children of time The children of time
The devil enlightens the children of time The devil entices the children of time The devil endorses the children of time
Father have merciful eyes for the children The children of time
(They "lick the earth" and swear it's real: description of indulging in worldly pleasures by Blaise Pascal)
