Sandpit

 

Verse 1

All our lives we build

Futures for ourselves

Chasing an even break

Not seeking huge wealth

 

Verse 2

From children we are taught

Be frugal and take care

Plan for your future

Be just and be fair

 

Chorus

Children in the sandpit

Building castles in the sand

Politicians in the sandpit

Knock them down again

 

Verse 3

Everybody is equal

We are told from young

You could be president

Your journey has just begun

 

Verse 4

So we start our lives

Full of hopes full of dreams

Not considering once

Barriers we will see

 

Chorus

Children in the sandpit

Building castles in the sand

Politicians in the sandpit

Knock them down again

 

Verse 5

Rich and the greedy

Have different plans for us

There are two classes in society

The haves and the have nots

 

Verse 6

Supported by politicians

A class wedge is driven

All our children's dreams

Are permanently ruined

 

Chorus

Children in the sandpit

Building castles in the sand

Politicians in the sandpit

Knock them down again
