How I want to wipe those crying eyes And change your life, it’s just not right They scream but we don’t hear it Your little feet carry brave a soldier A child shouldn’t need to prepare for war While the politicians run and hide The innocent are sacrificed And shattered lives aren’t healing Your little feet carry brave a soldier A child shouldn’t need to prepare for war Your little heart is too heavy for you A child shouldn’t feel so much pain, what for? You should be playing cars and dolls You’re much too young for battle scars Little soldier It’s hard to feel like someone cares You’re caught in a world that keeps you scared Little soldier Your little feet carry brave a soldier A child shouldn’t need to prepare for war Your little heart is too heavy for you A child shouldn’t feel so much pain, what for? What for?
