S.P.O.C.K: "All The Children Shall Lead" Lyrics

I'm sitting in my quarters aboard the ship 

 thinking about this very special trip 

 

 400 people, destiny: our closest star 

 mankind has never ever been that far 

 Soon comes the future, then we will die 

 All the children shall lead 

 We'll never see the world that lies ahead 

 long before we get there all adults will be dead 

 

 Then it is up to the kids we brought along 

 now they learn what is right and what is wrong 

 Soon comes the future, then we will die 

 All the children shall lead 

 As a bad example we show them how it used to be 

 before the year 2000 it was a total misery 

 Soon comes the future, then we will die 

 All the children shall lead
