Let no one think this is easy
That Bush can spout some pretty story
And make it all alright
Let no one think this is simple
Like cowboys in black hats and white
Fighting the good fight
The shades of grey are many
People ALWAYS killed for noble causes
Who's 'right' depends on who you are
It was 'right' for Reagan to back Pinochet
And thousands died for that
It was 'right' for napalm in 'Nam
Burning children where they sat
It was 'right' for Sharon to bulldoze a woman
And bury her in rubble
It was 'right' for Clinton to bomb Libya
And bring THAT country trouble
Where you stand rests on where you sit
We all want a peaceful life
But if your life is full of *****
Hatred becomes rife
Now we have Morrocco
And tomorrow who knows where?
Bush will mouth words written
To make him seem strong and fair
But another bomber will be born
Who hears only hatred
Bombs will be born in the heart
Until humanity is sacred
There must come a time
For solutions
Not simply words of hate
If we don't seek understanding
It may all end up too late
