Child Of The Universe Live

I'm a child of South Africa
I'm a child of Vietnam
I'm a child of Northern Ireland
I'm a small boy with blood on his hands

Yes, I'm a child of the universe
Yes, I'm a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every night
Always there to join in someone else's fight

I've never ask to be born
And I don't ask to die
I'm an endless dream
A gene machine that cannot reason why

Yes, I'm a child of the universe
Yes, I'm a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every day
I'm the child next door, three thousand miles away

I'm a child of South Africa
I'm a child of Vietnam
I'm a child of Northern Ireland
I'm a small boy with blood on his hands

Yes, I'm a child of the universe
Yes, I'm a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every night
Always there to join in someone else's fight

I've never ask to be born
And I don't ask to die
I'm an endless dream
A gene machine that cannot reason why

Yes, I'm a child of the universe
Yes, I'm a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every day
I'm the child next door, three thousand miles away

You can see me on the TV every day
I'm the child next door, three thousand miles away
