Listen to me children
They won’t see your light
If it’s hidden under a barrel
Clean out of sight

Listen to me children
Listen to what I say
For evil to triumph
All ya gotta do
Is look away

Listen to me children
Please stop the harm
Don’t put that needle
Into your arm

Listen to me children
I see your plight
Sometimes you gotta fight
Sometimes it’s right

Listen to me children
Hear what I say
You ain’t getting’ to Heaven
Acting that way

Listen to me children
Listen to me speak
Knock the door will open
And you’ll find what you seek

Listen to me children
I’m the past generation
Life lesson learned the hard way
Listen to me children hear what I have to say

Listen, listen, listen
