High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! "To Kill the Child"/"Leaving Beirut" is a 2004 CD single (released in Japan only) and a digital download written and performed by Roger Waters.The first song of the single runs at 3 minutes and 31 seconds. The lyrics open with the image of a child sleeping "in the glow of [a] Donald Duck light", possibly a reference to Waters' prior song "The Tide Is Turning." Waters goes on to ask why a culture whose primary concerns are luxury, consumption and petty values would "kill the child," no doubt in reference to his view on how war is orchestrated in order to satisfy mass production and paranoia, regardless of who is killed. The song ends with a plea to protect children from the crusade-waging "bigots and bully boys / Slugging it out in the yard."
