Der Songtext "Child of the Universe" von Barclay James Harvest handelt von der Identität und den Erfahrungen eines Kinde...

I′m a child of South Africa
I'm a child of Vietnam
I′m a child of Northern Ireland
I'm a small boy with blood on his hands

Yes, I'm a child of the universe
Yes, I′m a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every night
Always there to join in someone else′s fight

I didn't ask to be born
And I don′t ask to die
I'm an endless dream
A gene machine that cannot reason why

Yes, I′m a child of the universe
Yes, I'm a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every day
I′m the child next door, three thousand miles away

I'm a child of South Africa
I'm a child of Vietnam
I′m a child of Northern Ireland
I′m a small boy with blood on his hands

Yes, I'm a child of the universe
Yes, I′m a child of the universe
You can see me on the TV every night
Always there to join in someone else's fight

I didn′t ask to be born
And I don't ask to die
I′m an endless dream
A gene machine that cannot reason why

Yes, I'm a child of the universe (yes, yes)
Yes, I'm a child of the universe (yes, yes)
You can see me on the TV every day
I′m the child next door, three thousand miles away
