Children Of The Dust Lyrics - City Baby's Revenge - G.b.h.

It started off as innocent fun 

A stranger in a foreign land 

A boy with a gun and no name 

Seeks compassion with a girl in hand 

When your conscience taps you on the shoulder 

You'll be a little wiser and older 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Well, not even we can save the children of dust 

Task completed but you lost face 

Returning home the conquering savior 

The little girl who lives next door 

Takes a shine to your cool behavior 

When your conscience taps you on the shoulder 

You'll be a little wiser and older 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Well, not even we can save the children of dust 

[Incomprehensible] 

A steady job and a nice clean house 

Part of your parents' scheming 

The past will always catch you out 

In 'Nam a child is screaming 

When your conscience taps you on the shoulder 

You'll be a little wiser and older 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Well, not even we can save the children of dust 

Youth has gone now, the past is settled 

You'll pay for that night of lust 

A million miles, a promise 

And a child of the dust 

When your conscience taps you on the shoulder 

You'll be a little wiser and older 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Not even we can save the children of dust 

Well, not even we can save the children of dust 

[Incomprehensible]
