ITS NOT FAIR THAT CHILDREN Its not fair that children Should ever have to pay~ Just because some adults Must always have their way~ Its not fair that children Should ever have to know~ Of a world of trauma Not until they grow~ Its not fair that children Should ever have to be~ Anything but children Till childhood sets them free~ Its not fair that children Should not know of a world of love~ Should not grow in a world of peace Without the blessings from him above~ Children should only be children To play and love and learn~ And for dreams and magic things Their little hearts should yearn~ No ... Its not fair that children Should ever have to be~ Anything but children Till childhood sets them free~ Terrence Michael Sutton copyright 1980 ( watch the news and have tears in my eyes at times .. It's so wrong ..)

It's Not Fair That Children
ITS NOT FAIR THAT CHILDREN Its not fair that children Should ever have to pay~ Just because some adults Must always have their way~ Its not fair that children Should ever have to know~ Of a world of trauma Not until they grow~ Its not fair that children Should ever have to be~ Anything but children Till childhood sets them free~ Its not fair that children Should not know of a world of love~ Should not grow in a world of peace Without the blessings from him above~ Children should only be children To play and love and learn~ And for dreams and magic things Their little hearts should yearn~ No ... Its not fair that children Should ever have to be~ Anything but children Till childhood sets them free~ Terrence Michael Sutton copyright 1980 ( watch the news and have tears in my eyes at times ..
