Lyrics
Crocodile tears for the innocent
A smokescreen for their true intent
Feigning concern for the young ones' fate
While stripping freedoms at alarming rates
Surveillance state, data stored
Privacy invaded, rights ignored
Chat controls and mass deportation
All in the name of child protection
Won't someone think of the children
The rallying cry of the insincere
Won't someone think of the children
As they build a world of control and fear
Won't someone think of the children
A shield for agendas they hold so dear
Won't someone think of the children
While real threats to their future draw near
Southport's tragedy, a match to the flame
Misinformation spreads, play the blame game
Streets ablaze with hatred and rage
Protect our kids - their war they wage
Two-tier justice, cops to blame
Scapegoating migrants for political gain
Hotels attacked, lives in danger
All for the fear of the foreign stranger
Rational voices pushed aside
Dissent labeled as hate, facts denied
Truth distorted to fit their norms
Reason lost in emotional storms
Climate crisis looms ahead
But they'd rather monitor your web
Lip service to future generations
Leaving scorched earth as their foundation
The children you claim to protect
Inherit a world of your neglect
False concern, a means to an end
True motives, no longer pretend
