Where Do the Children Play?
Yusuf Islam
Well, I think it's fine
Building jumbo planes
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Yes, get what you want to if you want
'Cause you can get anything
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well, you roll on roads
Over fresh green grass
For your lorry loads
Pumping petrol gas
And you make them long
And you make them tough
But they just go on and on
And it seems that you can't get off
Oh, I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well, you've cracked the sky
Scrapers fill the air
But will you keep on building higher
'Til there's no more room up there?
Will you make us laugh?
Will you make us cry?
Will you tell us when to live?
Will you tell us when to die?
I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well, I think it's fine
Beh, penso che vada bene
Building jumbo planes
Costruire aerei giganti
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
O fare un giro su un treno cosmico
Switch on summer from a slot machine
Accendere l'estate da una slot machine
Yes, get what you want to if you want
Sì, ottieni quello che vuoi se vuoi
'Cause you can get anything
Perché puoi ottenere qualsiasi cosa
I know we've come a long way
So che abbiamo fatto molta strada
We're changing day to day
Stiamo cambiando giorno dopo giorno
But tell me, where do the children play?
Ma dimmi, dove giocano i bambini?
Well, you roll on roads
Beh, ti rotoli sulle strade
Over fresh green grass
Su erba verde fresca
For your lorry loads
Per i vostri camion carichi
Pumping petrol gas
Pompando benzina
And you make them long
E li fate lunghi
And you make them tough
E li fate resistenti
But they just go on and on
Ma vanno avanti e avanti
And it seems that you can't get off
E sembra che non puoi scendere
Oh, I know we've come a long way
So che abbiamo fatto molta strada
We're changing day to day
Stiamo cambiando giorno dopo giorno
But tell me, where do the children play?
Ma dimmi, dove giocano i bambini?
Well, you've cracked the sky
Beh, hai spaccato il cielo
Scrapers fill the air
I grattacieli riempiono l'aria
But will you keep on building higher
Ma continuerete a costruire più in alto
'Til there's no more room up there?
Finché non c'è più spazio lassù?
Will you make us laugh?
Ci farete ridere?
Will you make us cry?
Ci farete piangere?
Will you tell us when to live?
Ci direte quando vivere?
Will you tell us when to die?
Ci direte quando morire?
I know we've come a long way
So che abbiamo fatto molta strada
We're changing day to day

And it seems that you can't get off
E parece que você não consegue saltar fora

Até que não haja mais espaço lá no alto?
Will you make us laugh?
Será que você vai fazer a gente rir?
Will you make us cry?
Será que você vai fazer a gente chorar?

Você vai nos dizer quando viver?
Will you tell us when to die?
