Deep Purple, “Child in time”

 

Sweet child in time you’ll see the line / The line that’s drawn between good and bad / See the blind man shooting at the world / Bullets flying, ooh, taking toll

If you’ve been bad, oh Lord, I bet you have / And you’ve not been hit, oh, by flying lead / You’d better close your eyes, oh, bow your head / Wait for the ricochet

Ooh… / I wanna hear you screaming / Ooh…

Sweet child in time you’ll see the line / The line that’s drawn between good and bad / See the blind man shooting at the world / Bullets flying, ooh, taking toll

If you’ve been bad, Lord, I bet you have / And you’ve not been hit, oh, by flying lead / You’d better close your eyes, aah, bow your head / Wait for the ricochet

Ooh… / Oh, I gotta hear you screaming / Oh… / Oh God, no…
