about

Children in poverty stricken countries need feeding and family eduction not religious dogma rammed into their heads.

lyrics

Missionary child

Born in a back street, On leather back seat
Brought into the world, Much too young to be a mother
A cold night in the city, Shows a little pity
Turns its face away, Got no time to feed another

Sleeping in a cold bed, Might as well be dead
There’s no-one else around, Fell the fever running wild
Just another victim, Of doctrine and religion
That’s the way of life, Of a missionary child

Tell me why….
…we have to live this way…while you bend your knees to pray
…now is the time to change your ways
…It’s been too many years, too many tears
…for the missionary child.

…too many years, too many tears…for the missionary child
