the prophets spoke the word
the word was spoken blessed
the word was all life is blessed
the word was peace is blessed
the word was peace is sacred
because all life peace is sacred
blessed harvest prophets proclaimed
'all we are saying is give peace a chance'
then great John Lennon went forth proclaimed
peace not war in the name of victims persecuted
save poor sacred souls
poor white poor black balloted
into wars steel teeth injustice
profit oiled cruelty evil greed
perpetrated against innocent
people in foreign lands invaded
princes of peace prose lyrics write
speak sing live words lives peace blessed
peace is life beautiful souls speak truth
evil angels of death Nixon Bushes Obamas
reign terror wars upon innocent individuals
invading into far drone staked foreign lands
deception lie is evil war is necessary proclaimed
historically to protect freedom democracy
to oppose communism terrorism tyranny
peace is life war skull and bones club is death
politicians palms crossed with silver gold
oiled palms vote to protect ideal democracy
to fight new age slogan wars on terrorism
but stop think war is evil war is terrorism
how did you not know policy war is terrorism?
now the question will
you support evil wars
oiled rhetoric justified
or will you support sacred
life liberty freedom for all
sacred souls domestic foreign?
who are the prophets
in this voice high tech
contemporary world?
people are the prophets
again ask question life sacred
will you support peace or wars?
