Where Do The Children Play by Cat Stevens

Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
or takin' a (1)________ on a (2)____________ train.
switch on summer from a slot machine.
get what you want to if you want,
cause you can get anything.
I know we've come a long way,
we're changin' day to day,
but tell me,
where do the (3)________________ play?
Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass.
for your lorryloads pumping (4)____________ gas.
and you make them long, and you make them tough.
but they (5)________ go on and on,
and it seems you can't get off.
Oh, I know we've come a (6)________ way,
we're changin' day to day,
but tell me,
where do the children play?
When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air.
will you keep on building higher
til there's no more room up there?
will you make us laugh, (7)________ you make us cry?
will you (8)________ us (9)________ to live?
will you tell us when to die?
I know we've come a long way,
we're changin' day to day,
but tell me,
where do the children play?
