Song of the day- This One's for the Children
Today I want to take you back to my childhood where I have a vivid memory of listening to this cassette tape non stop while playing with my sister's He-Man toys...I'm pretty sure He-Man and Skeletor were putting on a benefit show for some of My Little Ponies at the time, don't get me started on the Jasmine and Aladdin powerhouse concert of Celine Dion's "Colour of My Love" album I used to put on...I digress. Full of cheese and synth and a child choir, I ate it up. And as an added bonus I am also including their Arsenio Hall holiday performance of "Funky Funky Christmas" so there is proof I wasn't the only kid at the time eating it up. What butt shaking and not shirts under jacket dancing has to do with Christmas I still don't know, but in any case, this one's for the child in all of us.
Funky Funky Christmas
This is a very serious message so all of you please listen.
There are some people living in this world
They have no food to eat
They have no place to go
But we all are god’s children
We’ve got to learn to love one another
Just remember, they could be us
Remember, we all are brothers
I’m not trying to darken up your day
But help others in need
And show them there’s a better way
This one’s for the children
The children of the world
This one’s for the children
May God keep them in his throne
Many people are happy
And many people are sad
Some people have many things
That others can only wish they had
So for the sake of the children
Show them love’s the only way to go
’cause they are tomorrow and people, they’ve got to know
I’m not trying to darken up your day
But help others in need
And show them there’s a better way
This one’s for the children
The children of the world
This one’s for the children
May God keep them in his throne
This one’s for the children
The children of the world
This one’s for the children
May God keep them in his throne
