- All Our Sons And Daughters LyricsJohn Farnham, Phil Buckle, and Ross Fraser
I've got a question can you answer me
Do you sleep when you're alone
Hey all you captains of industry
You line your pockets but you poison me
You're sitting on the edge of an emergency
Tell me how you sleep at night
Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something's got to change
You work behind a veil of secrecy
You got the power on your side
I've got a question will you answer me
Where will you run where will you hide
You're sitting on the edge of an emergency
Staring at a loaded gun
Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something's got to change
Hey all you short sighted business men
There's more to this than meets the eye
You keep on taking we pay the price
Just take a look up at the sky
We're staring at the face of an emergency
You're looking out for number one
Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something's got to change
I've got a question can you answer me
Do you sleep when you're alone
Hey all you captains of industry
You line your pockets but you poison me
You're sitting on the edge of an emergency
Tell me how you sleep at night
Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something's got to change
You work behind a veil of secrecy
You got the power on your side
I've got a question will you answer me
Where will you run where will you hide
Staring at a loaded gun
Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something's got to change
Hey all you short sighted business men
There's more to this than meets the eye
You keep on taking we pay the price
Just take a look up at the sky
We're staring at the face of an emergency
You're looking out for number one
Poison in the water
Breaking down the chain
For all our sons and daughters
Something's got to change
