Children On Parade Lyrics - Going Somewhere - Colin Hay

All the girls and boys are gone away 

They never really had much to say 

They took off all their clothes and their shoes 

Politely asked to be excused 

They're the children on parade 

They have secrets that they share 

They're the children on parade 

And nobody knows, nobody knows 

All the broken toys lie on the floor 

There's no more laughter from down the hall 

Mirror, mirror, mirror on the wall 

Whatever could have happened to them all? 

To the children on parade 

And all the secrets that they share 

They're the children on parade 

And nobody knows, nobody knows 

All across the world, just yesterday 

All the girls and boys just went away 

They took off all their clothes and their shoes 

I'd love to someday hear all the news 

About the children on parade 

And all the secrets that they share 

They're the children on parade 

And nobody knows, nobody knows 

Nobody knows, nobody knows
