[Verse 1] Lo- Lord, the air is foul with the smell of hypocrisy As bloody armies scream- screams for victory Lying there in the mire is a mama and child Their anguished cries trampled by boots on either side [Solo] [Verse 2] Now with bloodshot eyes we look out beyond earth's gate Seeking new planets to plant seeds of hate, yeah Progress, it's said, makes for a softer bed, mmm But no one will lie easy if everyone lies dead Now it's time, I think, and I think you'll agree, oh To love thy neighbor and set all men free So take the shackles from the wings of the dying dove And permit her to fly away to peace and love, yeah [Instrumental Outro]
