Lyrics
"Mommy, mommy, come and look and see what I have found A little way away from here while digging in the ground." "Come away, Melinda. Come in and close the door. It's nothing but a picture book they had before the war." "Mommy, mommy, come and see. Oh, mommy, come and look. There's four or five Melinda girls inside this picture book." "Come away, Melinda. Come in and close the door. There were lots of little girls like you before they had the war." "Mommy, mommy, come and see. Oh, mommy, hurry do. There's someone grown up and tall who doesn't look like you." "Come away, Melinda. Come in and close the door. Your father was a man like that before they had the war." "Mommy, mommy, come and see. Such things I've never seen. There's happy faces all around and all the ground is green." "Come away, Melinda. Come in and close the door. That's just the way it used to be before they had the war." "Mommy, mommy come and see and tell me if you can, Why can't it be the way it was before the war began?" "Come away, Melinda. Come in and close the door. The answer lies in yesterday before they had the war."
