The forgotten child
Where is the child, does anyone know?
She's been forgotten, when did she go?
The times are brutal, borders are crossed
Where is the child, the child is lost
Where is the child? Someone must know
Who saw her last? Why did she go?
We were under attack, reaching rock bottom
That was our focus, the child was forgotten
It's an open secret, we spread and react
And if it's not true then the rumours a fact
Although she may have been sometimes forgotten
There is no suggestion she was misbegotten
She was our reason, our religion, our cause
Our best excuse for emergency laws
Invoked so often to explain and subdue
The forgotten child from whom we all grew
Child of our nation, our icon, our future
Gone from our records, on no computer
The times are brutal, borders are crossed
I think she took flight, and now we're all lost
Where is the child?
Where is the child?
The times are brutal, borders are crossed
Where is the child? The child is lost
(Where is the child?)
(Where is the child?)
She's been forgotten, when did she go?
The times are brutal, borders are crossed
Where is the child, the child is lost
Where is the child? Someone must know
Who saw her last? Why did she go?
We were under attack, reaching rock bottom
That was our focus, the child was forgotten
It's an open secret, we spread and react
And if it's not true then the rumours a fact
Although she may have been sometimes forgotten
There is no suggestion she was misbegotten
She was our reason, our religion, our cause
Our best excuse for emergency laws
Invoked so often to explain and subdue
The forgotten child from whom we all grew
Child of our nation, our icon, our future
Gone from our records, on no computer
The times are brutal, borders are crossed
I think she took flight, and now we're all lost
Where is the child?
Where is the child?
The times are brutal, borders are crossed
Where is the child? The child is lost
(Where is the child?)
(Where is the child?)
