Children's Bread

They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Makin' so many peoples lives so hard
While those cats get fat
In came all the rats
Stole away the cheese
And doing as they please
Jack Spratt ate all the fat
And his wife, well, ate all the lean
So between the both, you see
They licked the platter clean
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Makin' so many peoples lives so hard
Now there’s a gathering on Main Street
Shuffling on Wall Street
To a new drum beat
Turning up the heat
Now the weak get strong
Singing a new song
Time has come for us to right their wrongs
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Makin' so many peoples lives so hard
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Took the children’s bread
And gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Makin' so many peoples lives so hard
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Took the children’s bread
And gave it to the dogs
They took the children’s bread
And they gave it to the dogs
Makin' so many peoples lives so hard
