What About The Children

What About The Children Lyrics

They need our love if we are willing 
(This one is for the children) 
(Cause Lil' Mo love the kids yea) 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah 
(For every child, for every human) 

Looking back on yesterday 
Funny how things have changed 
We forgot all about the simple things 
Didn't we? 
Instead of getting kids off the streets 
Will go and buy a diamond ring? 
Put a pleasure right before priority 
We're too busy sittin' here thinking about us 
Need to think about the kids just because 

They need our love if we are willing 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah 

I even cry myself to sleep 
When I see kids that are fooled to weep 
Who are we to say that we don't see these things 
It's in our face every day 
But you turn and walk away 
Open up your heart and spread some love today 
We're too busy sittin' here thinking about us 
Need to think about the kids just because 

They need our love if we are willing 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah 

Sit around just thinking about us 
Need to think about the kids just because 
Knowing we can change all things with the help of God 
We need to see what our love can bring 

They need our love if we are willing 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah 
They need our love if we are willing 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah 
They need our love if we are willing 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah 
They need our love if we are willing 
So I'm asking what about the children, yeah
