<br />
Come you masters of war <br />
You that build all the guns <br />
You that build the death planes <br />
You that build the big bombs <br />
You that hide behind walls <br />
You that hide behind desks <br />
I just want you to know <br />
I can see through your masks. <br />
<br />
You that never done nothin' <br />
But build to destroy <br />
You play with my world <br />
Like it's your little toy <br />
You put a gun in my hand <br />
And you hide from my eyes <br />
And you turn and run farther <br />
When the fast bullets fly. <br />
<br />
Like Judas of old <br />
You lie and deceive <br />
A world war can be won <br />
You want me to believe <br />
But I see through your eyes <br />
And I see through your brain <br />
Like I see through the water <br />
That runs down my drain. <br />
<br />
You fasten all the triggers <br />
For the others to fire <br />
Then you set back and watch <br />
When the death count gets higher <br />
You hide in your mansion' <br />
As young people's blood <br />
Flows out of their bodies <br />
And is buried in the mud. <br />
<br />
You've thrown the worst fear <br />
That can ever be hurled <br />
Fear to bring children <br />
Into the world <br />
For threatening my baby <br />
Unborn and unnamed <br />
You ain't worth the blood <br />
That runs in your veins. <br />
<br />
How much do I know <br />
To talk out of turn <br />
You might say that I'm young <br />
You might say I'm unlearned <br />
But there's one thing I know <br />
Though I'm younger than you <br />
That even Jesus would never <br />
Forgive what you do. <br />
<br />
Let me ask you one question <br />
Is your money that good <br />
Will it buy you forgiveness <br />
Do you think that it could <br />
I think you will find <br />
When your death takes its toll <br />
All the money you made <br />
Will never buy back your soul. <br />
<br />
And I hope that you die <br />
And your death'll come soon <br />
I will follow your casket <br />
In the pale afternoon <br />
And I'll watch while you're lowered <br />
Down to your deathbed <br />
And I'll stand over your grave <br />
'Til I'm sure that you're dead.
