Barclay James Harvest - Child Of The Universe lyrics

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 didn't 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
