    Default Feed The Children

    Feed The Children of planet Earth
    You've got to feed them, you gave them birth
    Feed The Children, you know how
    Mothers and fathers, Feed The Children now

    You don't need heavy industry
    To learn how to milk a cow
    All you need is to plant some seeds
    Put our hands to the plow

    Feed The Children right away
    They've got to eat 3 meals a day
    Feed The Children from the time they're born
    Smiling faces will be your reward

    Hear them crying
    There's no denying
    You need the children
    Feel their hunger
    While they're younger
    Feed The Children

    Feed The Children until they're full
    Meat, potatos and vegetables
    Set the table, bake the bread
    Come on, people, feed your kids

    It takes time to produce the food
    You've got to work the land
    Let's help the developing nations
    End the starvation of man

    Feed The Children of planet Earth
    You've got to feed them, you gave them birth
    Feed The Children, you know how
    Mothers and fathers, Feed The Children now

    Rap:
    If I were a politician
    I would tell people
    You've got to work
    Grow food!
    If you live in a desert
    Irrigate!
    Dig ditches!
    Bring water!
    Cos that's where it begins
    And that's where it ends

    Jim, you should send this song of yours to Unesco:
    indeed, the two pilars a better future stands or falls with are education for all and a Helping Hand On the Land.
    It may interest you to know that the future cities will start to be selfsupplying, with vegetables , fruit, growing on, around even towerflats.
    In a way I am doing that already: I live on top of a 7th floor building and I grow tomatoes, paprikas, herbs, beans..... from April till Octoberon balcony and terrace.
    Houses will be designed better, so that it can be done all year round on bigger balconies.
    In the countryside they'll concentrate on grain and cattle. These are fascinating looks on the future. We handle things slowly, but the process is unstoppable if we want to improve!

    Hey, Jim, what's your instrument, anyway? I am an acoustic guitarist. I love to sing.
    Could go touring Unesco, meboy!
