A Call for Peace

A call for peace is a call for war,

no matter the circumstances.

We know we’re the best;

Let’s spread that greatness.

They’re dying to see what we can do.

We know you won’t attack us,

 

but

Just in case

 

This is just for self-defence.

You understand,

of course,

we know you do,

 

but

Just in case

 

We don’t trust you,

 

comrade

 

ally

 

friend

 

brother.

 

A call for war is a call for peace.

Nice to meet you,

my old friend; neighbour.

Your house is a very nice

place for a base.

Mind if we stay awhile?

 

A call for peace is a call for war.

A call for war is a call for peace.

Can you tell?--

What's the difference?

Peace on Earth.
