Peace Song

Now everybody's looking for a little peace of mind

We're a generation running out of time

There's a bomb, there's a man

There's a gun in his hand yeah

Nobody smiles at strangers we're scared from birth

Afraid the man's gonna take us for all that we're worth

Strip us of our pride

Make a strike from inside

Come on and tell me

How long will we be victims of fear

With a man and a gun and the "day after" fear

Jesus smile down upon your children

Smile down upon your family



Even lovers have trouble at hand

What's your preference where do you stand

You get all uptight about it

Wanna fight about it

Wanna fight about love

No no no

Wanting independence separate but equal

A lover here another there

One more for the sequel to the heartache

How much more can we take

Won't you tell me

How long will we be victims of fear

With a man and a gun and the "day after" fear

Jesus smile down upon your children

Smile down upon your family



Now i'm talking about

Altruism and unification

We forgotten what that means

Cynicism in this mighty nation

And hatred is spitting us right at the seams



Oh but i still believe that good will prevail

And if we don't ever try

It's damn sure that we'll fail

Lose another day

The american way

So come all believers

Come all races

Start looking at the souls

Not at the faces

And we're there

And we're learning to care

I want to know baby

How long will we be victims of fear

With a man and a gun and the "day after" fear

Jesus smile down upon your children

Smile down upon your family

Jesus smile down upon your children

Smile down upon your family
