Happy Children
P. Lion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Always the war in 1983
This is the world of today
In our mind, there is only the money
And there is nothing for you
Ten hours work, no flowers in the mind
Then life runs without happiness
Every day, dreams to go to a better life
But they remain only dreams

You are the children
Your life will be very hard
You are the children
You're singing every day

To have a friend to explain your little problem
Can you say now to have it?
Sometimes you hope it's only an illusion
Don't hope, it's better so
But children-power will win, I am sure
With sweet, sweet lovin' for us
Your fantasy will find new nice color
But now it's time to go

You are the children
Your life will be very hard
You are the children
You're singing every day

You are the children
Your life will be very hard
You are the children
You're singing every day

You are the children
Your life will be very hard




You are the children
You're singing every day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to P. Lion's "Happy Children" paint a picture of a bleak world full of war and money, where children are singing every day despite the difficult circumstances they face. The opening lines, "Always the war in 1983 - this is the world of today," set the tone for the rest of the song, highlighting the conflicts of the era, whether they be political, social or economic. The lyrics emphasize the hardships of life and the lack of happiness, as shown in the line "the life runs without happiness."


Moreover, the lyrics speak of the everyday struggles that people face, where there is no time for leisure or pleasure, as shown in the line, "then hours work, no flowers in the mind." The song depicts the challenges that children have to face in such a world, where they hope to have a better life filled with joy and happiness, but those hopes are denied as they are left to sing and accept their difficult reality.


However, the lyrics convey a message of hope, with the line "But children power will win, I am sure, will see sweet lovers for us." The children's resilience and strength will shine through in the end, and happiness and love will be theirs at last. It encourages children to keep dreaming, despite their circumstances, as their fantasy will eventually find new and brighter colours.

I agree with you and I would like to go back to those days, nothing compares to music from the 70s and 90s.
