Revolution in their minds - the children start to march
Against the world in which they have to live
and all the hate that's in their hearts
They're tired of being pushed around
and told just what to do
They'll fight the world until they've won
and love comes flowing through
Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
Will the sun rise up tomorrow bringing peace in any way?
Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear?
Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear?
So you children of the world,
listen to what I say
If you want a better place to live in
spread the words today
Show the world that love is still alive
you must be brave
Or you children of today are
Children of the Grave, Yeah!

I'm not allowed to pick which songs to play at the nursing home anymore

The drums on this song...melts my brain with awesomeness. Like Ravens wings flapping.
-
I love how Sabbath had songs with names like "Children of the grave" and really dark sound, and yet very hippie like lyrics about love.
-
This song came out in 1971 and it’s still heavy by todays standards
-
People didn't shun metal because it was evil, it was because it exposed the truth.
-
I was 12 when I was turned on to Sabbath this was my first taste of Metal..I'm 45 now I still have my long hair and still play Sabbath..So enjoy all you new young Metal Heads..

This band was way ahead of its time. Incredible songs, this one being one of their very best.
-
Imagine hearing this in 1971 for the first time. It's still bone-crushingly heavy to this day.
-
BIll Ward smashes the drums on this, amazing, hope all you Sabbath fans can appreciate what he did for Black Sabbath!
-
Funny how these "satanic" songs seem to always have the brightest and truest messages.

Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today.

Great lyrics unbelievable how amazing these guys were.

Geezer's bass playing is so great in this song. Great song by the whole band.

This song is one of Black Sabbath’s heavy metal classics. It even inspired sci-fi/fantasy author Nathan Godwin to write a horror story by the same title (which he dedicated to Black Sabbath). Awesome.
-
Still so relevant. Love this song.
-
This song fits perfect for today's world
-
What amazes me the most is the high social content present in the songs of this band. I was 15 yrs old when I first listened to them. Today I am 54 and still like it!
