War is just for power

War is not for fun

They send our soldiers out to die

With just a tiny gun

 

We’re brainwashed into thinking

That we have to go to war

The reasons are excuses

They’ve already shut the door

 

We try to reason with them

We say there’s nought to fear

But power is madness

That is soon to cost us dear

 

When many thousand soldiers die

Innocent people too

The powers will then get the oil

And say it’s for me and you

 

But just remember what I say

If the leaders fought the war

Or had to send their closest kin

We would have peace forevermore
