They live under ground in Bucharest
sniffing glue from wraps
instead on the walls of Baghdad
the sketched eyes of children still affixed
the children in the favelas are all patched up
entangled stars and crumpled up moons
black black tufts of African mothers
dirty and very hungry, they will never see tomorrow
Children are created equal
nobody is nobody's child
they're all born from love
we know how we are born
but we don't know how we die
Children are created equal
nobody is nobody's child
Son of an Albanian is born in the middle of the sea
watch out, the sharks will eat him up
with snot in the nose, and gun in hand
so is man whether is Serb or Afghan
in Kurdistan, always the same lies!
in Haiti from marines dump, gathering food
flowers with almond shaped eyes, threw in the middle of the road
in the east paying for strange fantasies
Children are created equal
nobody is nobody's child
they're all born from love
we know how we are born
but we don't know how we die
Children are created equal
nobody is nobody's child
On a green meadow
let them play
don't switch off their dreams
let them fly
never disappoint them
never betray their trust
never let them down
never let them suffer
Children are created equal
nobody is nobody's child
they're all born from love
we know how we are born
but we don't know how we die
Children are created equal
nobody is nobody's child
