Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the guns
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know I can see through your masksYou that never done nothing
But to build and destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a drug in my head
And then you hide from my eyes
Then you turn and run farther when the fast bullets flyLike Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water that runs down my drainYou that fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
And you sit back and watch
While the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
While young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies and is buried in the mudYou've thrown the worst fear
That could ever be hurled
The fear to bring children
Into this world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood that runs in your veinsHow much do I know
To talk out of turn?
You might say that I'm young
You might say we're unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never forgive what you doLet me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness?
Do you think that it could?
Oh, I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made will never buy back your soulAnd I hope that you die
And your death will come soon
I'll follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch as you're lowered
Into your deathbed
And I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure that you're dead
