Down fire escapes, they must escapeTo clearer skies and kissing gatesFrom books of verse and poetryTo singing grass and raging seasEmbroidered on the tapestry of children's facesThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyBurdens borne by tiny handsPile up like grains of sandThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyLike hungry hawks, their gossip talksOf innocence on iron catwalksThe child is raised on factory fumesThe sirens sound late afternoonThe smokestack children die too soonBurst on Earth like toy balloonsThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyBurdens borne by tiny handsPile up like grains of sandThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyBurdens borne by tiny handsPile up like grains of sandThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasyThe jury's verdict finds us guiltySmokestack children sleep uneasy
