A child is born everyday
What's the future, who can say?
Will it be good or bad
And how will our children get on?
Yes how will our children get on?

Children left without a care
Left on the doorsteps stranded there
If this thing will carry on
Then where do our children belong?
Yes where do our children belong?

All around the world
In every city in every country
Children playing in the streets
Future generations-oh yeah!
That's where our children belong
That's where our children belong

Conscience has run away to hide
A baby on a doorstep for the night
A mother who thinks that she knows best
Has failed the all important test

A child is born everyday
What's the future, who can say?
Will it be good or bad
How will our children get on?
Yes how will our children get on?
