Please tell me the reason
behind the colours that you fly
love just one nation
and the whole world will be divine
you say you're sorry
there is no other choice
God bless the people
can I raise their voice?


We can chase down all our enemies
bring them to their knees
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can't bomb it into peace

We may even find the solution
to hunger and disease
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can't bomb it into peace


Violence springs one thing
more of the same
military madness
the smell of flesh and burning pain
so I sing out to the masses
stand up if you're still sane
all of us gone crazy
I sing this one refrain

We can chase down all our enemies
bring them to their knees
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can't bomb it into peace

We may even find the solution
to hunger and disease
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can't bomb it into peace

I say: Power to the peaceful
love to the people y'all
Power to the peaceful
love to the people y'all

We may even find the solution
to hunger and disease
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can't bomb it into peace

We can chase down all our enemies
we can even bring them to their knees
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can't bomb it into peace

I say: Power to the peaceful
love to the people y'all
Power to the peaceful
love to the people y'all
