Lyrics Billy Bragg

Billy Bragg

Baby Faroukh

Standing, standing up for the first time

Baby Farouk is here

Walking, walking all on his own

Baby Farouk draws near

Join us now in celebration

To each child a generation!

Climbing, climbing over the wall

Baby Farouk is high

Dancing, dancing out in the hall,

Baby Farouk can fly

Bringer of joy and tribulation

To each child a generation

Sleeping, sleeping sound in his cot,

Baby Farouk he glows

Plant a seed of love in my heart,

Baby Farouk, it grows

To each woman and man a child,

To each child a generation.
