Kevin Johnson - Child Of Today lyrics

Child of today is it right what we say Is it all going fine or is it all in a steady decline Between the devil and the deep blue sea The changing roles within the family The cold apartments and the warm TV Are you old before your time? Child of today do we know what you play Or do you find it's outa sight and out of mind Between the devil and the deep blue sea The changing values of society It's hard to find a place where you should be Are you old before your time? Are you old before your time With the weight upon your mind Of knowing what it is you're meant to be? Are there questions there inside When you're taken by the tide And the current wants to hold you, yet be free? Child of today did it all slip away Or was it just left behind in a world Of a different kind Between the devil and the deep blue sea The changing patterns of society It's hard to find a place where you should be Are you old before your time? Do you ever get that feeling When you're caught up on the tide That the current wants to hold you yet be free Do you ever get the feeling As you're taken on your ride That we just can't see the forest for the trees? Child of today is it right what we say Is it all going fine Or is it all In a steady decline Between the devil and the deep blue sea The changing roles within the family The cold apartments and the warm TV Are you old before your time?
