The John Denver Collection - Calypso album, as a live version.
The world is fast becoming
younger
The news is all they've ever known
They've seen the wars, the hurt, the
hunger
How will they choose when they are grown
What do you tell forever's
children
When it's their turn to hurt and heal
Whatever spins a grim tornedo
Can also
turn a potters wheel
Take a little clay
Put it on a wheel
Get a little hint
How
God must feel
Give a little turn
Listen to a spin
Make it into the shape
You
want it in
Tell with your life the bloody story
Teach to they're dreams not burning
steel
It's not in bombs where lies the glory
But in what's shattered on the
field
The potter's wheel takes love and caring
Skill and patience fast and slow
The
works it makes are easily broken
Once they survive the potter's throw
Take a little
clay
Put it on a wheel
Get a little hint
How God must feel
Give a little
turn
Listen to a spin
Make it into the shape
You want it in
Some day some
children will be digging
In some long forgotten ground
And they'll find our
civilisation
Or what's left of it to be found
They'll find the weapons of
destruction
But buried deeper in the hole
They'll find a message and a promise
In the
sand, the potter's bowl
Take a little clay
Put it on a wheel
Get a little
hint
How God must feel
Give a little turn
Listen to a spin
