| 作词 : Cale | |
| The children are all leaving school today | |
| Mama said, don't worry, i'll be back one day | |
| The blue men in uniform smiled and waved goodbye | |
| She was hiding those tears in her eyes | |
| Roll up the history books, burn the chairs | |
| Set fire to anything, set fire to the air | |
| They're hiding [riding?] to begin and running at the end | |
| 'cause mama said, you take your life in your hands | |
| Taking your life, your life in your hands | |
| But don't take your life in your hands like i did | |
| I don't feel so bad, and always look forward with hope | |
| Forward and hope that the children will always be there | |
| Cancel the day, cancel the night | |
| Cancel the day, cancel the night | |
| 'cause who could be watching when she steals and runs away | |
| Full of hysterical laughter, and say | |
| Mama, mama | |
| I've left school today | |
| I hope i get to see you in that funny school far away | |
| But those gentlemen in blue, and those in grey | |
| Say i'll never, never see mama again | |
| 'cause she took those lives in her hands | |
| Yes, she took all those lives in her hands | |
| Yes, she took all those lives in her hands | |
| But let me wonder, what was there left in those hands? |
