"The Plastic Park" lyrics

"The Plastic Park"

To the Plastic Park
From noon to four
Parents send their children to play grownup games
Like war
Plastic hand grenades
Atomic submarines
Sherman tanks that drive around
And lemonade is never seen

To the Plastic Park
Children never go
After dawn
For every child knows
To the Plastic Park
With darkness comes
Last year's children and their metal guns
And what have we done with the chalk marks
Popcorn stands
Barbie dolls and hold my hands
Where have they gone?
Where have they gone?

To the Plastic Park
From nine to five
Parents send themselves to play children's games
Like, build a bigger castle, in the sand
Just to see it torn down by another man
And what have we done with the chalk marks
Popcorn stands
Barbie dolls and hold my hands
Where have they gone?
