'70 They're Killing Children Over There

So we went to see the Jefferson Airplane

Our Dada was the opening act

Grace Slick was young and angry

She said "My fellow freaks, it's a fact

They're killing children over there

They're killing children over there

I know we're not supposed to care

But they're still killing children over there"

Back then I was even younger than Grace Slick

Even for my age I was small

I thought she meant a massacre

Was taking place inside that hall

They're killing children over there

They're killing children over there

I know we're not supposed to care

But they're still killing children over there

Now that everyone is fat and complacent

I haven't heard a protest in years

We just keep paying our taxes

The taxes keep turning the gears

They're killing children over there

They're killing children over there

I know we're not supposed to care

But they're still killing children over there
