WOMAN ONE Did you see them Going off to fight? WOMAN TWO Children of the barricade Who didn't last the night? WOMAN THREE Did you see them Lying where they died? Someone used to cradle them And kiss them when they cried. WOMAN FOUR Did you see them lying side by side? WOMAN FIVE Who will wake them? WOMAN SIX No one ever will. WOMAN TWO No one ever told them That a summer day can kill. WOMAN SEVEN They were schoolboys Never held a gun... Fighting for a new world That would rise up like the sun. WOMAN THREE Where's that new world now the fighting's done? WOMAN FOUR Nothing changes. WOMAN SEVEN Nothing ever will. WOMAN EIGHT Every year another brat, another mouth to fill. WOMAN SEVEN Same old story. What's the use of tears? WOMAN FIVE What's the use of praying if there's nobody who hears? ALL Turning, turning, turning, turning, turning Through the years. Turning, turning, turning through the years Minutes into hours and the hours into years. Nothing changes. Nothing ever can Round about the roundabout and back where you began. Round and round and back where you began! 2h5l
