The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Time - way out of line

A whole nation waits outsied

The rhythm of tomorrow

They can dance away their sorrows tonight

Lost - broken and scarred

Prisoner waits outside with his lone heart beating

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

Let the children - let the children speak

Aims - dangerous games

Their mother says one false move and we all get hurt

I feel this sense of power I feel it every hour tonight

Let's not get lazy tonight

Things could get crazy cos

One more kick and the door cracks open

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children

Power to the powerless strength unto the weak

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

I'm begging you now

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children

Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

Let's not get lazy tonight

Things could get crazy cos

One last kick and the door cracks open

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

Things could get crazy tonight

Let's not get lazy cos

One last kick and the door cracks open

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

I'm begging you now

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children

Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

The language of this world

Let's not get lazy cos

One false move and we all get hurt

Let the children, let the children

Let the children, let the children speak

The language of this world

Things could get crazy
