Where Do The Children Play by Cat Stevens

Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes.
or takin' a ride on a cosmic 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 children play?

for your lorryloads pumping petrol gas.
and you make (4)________ long, and you make them tough.
but they just go on and on,
and it seems you can't get off.
Oh, I know we've come a (5)________ way,
we're changin' day to day,
but tell me,
where do the children play?
When you crack the sky, (6)________________ fill the air.
will you keep on building higher
til there's no (7)________ room up there?
will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
will you tell us when to live?
will you (8)________ us when to die?
I (9)________ we've come a long way,
we're changin' day to day,
but tell me,
where do the children play?
