One More Baby In Black - The Christians

Oh the boy had a dream

He once had a mind of his own

So they took it away

And quickly the damage is done

Yes the heart disappears

And gives way to despair

They’ve got schemes and ideas

But no loving and care

And it needs that much more, needs it much more

Well so much for your schemes

So much for the things that you say

While you’re out chasing votes

He’s out chasing dragons all day

So another child dies

One more baby in black

And the mother she cries

As she’s starting to crack

And she can’t take much more, no she can’t take much more

How many more times, must they shatter our trust

Do we sit in silence, or stand up and scream in disgust

I still have a dream

I still have a mind of my own

They won’t take it away

Because I see the damages they’ve done

I see one more boy dies

One more baby in black

Hear a mother who cries

But that don’t bring him back

How many times must we stand for their lies

As the crocodile tears fill their eyes

The suffering and hardship is not going to fall

Try to call them again

Because I can’t take much more

It’s worth fighting for

And we need love much more…
