Mother cries out again, it's no charade (or mothers in the kitchen he knows she read)
Father runs to the table, he says what's going on
Mother cries desperately, our little baby's gone[ CHORUS ONE ]Do you know where your children are

And they're somewhere out on the street
Just imagine how scared they are

Saying that he'll buy her things, while sexually abusing her
Just think that she's alone somewhere out on the street
How will this girl survive? She ain't got nothing to eat![ CHORUS ONE and MICHAEL ]Do you know where your children are?
