[00:10.59] Come you masters of war
[00:13.40]
[00:14.72] You that build all the guns
[00:18.30]
[00:19.01] You that build the death planes
[00:23.71] You that build the big bombs
[00:26.67]
[00:28.21] You that hide behind walls
[00:32.73] You that hide behind desks
[00:36.28]
[00:37.35] I just want you to know
[00:39.43] I can see through your masks
[00:42.23]
[00:44.11] You that never done nothin'
[00:47.11]
[00:48.53] But build to destroy
[00:51.52]
[00:53.25] You play with my world
[00:57.47] Like it's your little toy
[01:00.71]
[01:02.01] You put a gun in my hand
[01:06.55] And you hide from my eyes
[01:09.92]
[01:11.02] And you turn and run farther
[01:12.68]
[01:13.22] When the fast bullets fly
[01:16.06]
[01:18.09] Like Judas of old
[01:21.65]
[01:22.51] You lie and deceive
[01:26.20]
[01:26.91] A world war can be won
[01:31.62] You want me to believe
[01:36.16] But I see through your eyes
[01:39.51]
[01:40.55] I see through your brain
[01:44.38]
[01:44.98] Like I see through the water
[01:47.14] That runs down my drain
[01:49.95]
[01:51.79] You fasten all the triggers
[01:54.54]
[01:56.39] For the others to fire
[02:00.77] Then you set back and watch
[02:05.35] While the death count gets higher
[02:08.99]
[02:10.02] You hide in your mansion
[02:12.86]
[02:14.51] While the young people's blood
[02:17.78]
[02:19.08] Flows out of their bodies
[02:21.44] And is buried in the mud
[02:23.45]
[02:25.71] You've thrown the worst fear
[02:28.15]
[02:30.10] That can ever be hurled
[02:32.64]
[02:34.64] Fear to bring children
[02:38.49]
[02:39.76] Into the world
[02:44.03] For threatening my baby
[02:48.60] Unborn and unnamed
[02:51.98]
[02:52.75] You ain't worth the blood
[02:55.26] That runs in your veins
[02:57.21]
[03:08.59] How much do I know
[03:12.06]
[03:13.14] To talk out of turn
[03:15.42]
[03:17.13] You might say that I'm young
[03:21.56] You might say I'm unlearned
[03:25.76] But there's one thing I know
[03:30.25] Though I'm younger than you
[03:34.63] That even Jesus would never
[03:36.94] Forgive what you do
[03:39.52]
[03:45.78] Let me ask you one question
[03:49.60]
[03:50.39] Is your money that good
[03:53.97] Will it buy you forgiveness
[03:57.66]
[03:59.07] Do you think that it could
[04:02.95]
[04:03.68] I think you will find
[04:08.29] When you death takes it's toll
[04:11.86]
[04:12.82] All the money you made
[04:14.83] Won't ever buy back your soul
[04:17.93]
[04:24.19] Andl I hope that you die
[04:27.89]
[04:28.54] And your death will come soon
[04:32.86] I'll follow your casket
[04:36.28]
[04:37.34] On a pale afternoon
[04:42.12] And I'll watch while you're lowered
[04:46.80] Down to your deathbed
[04:50.58] And I'll stand over your grave
[04:53.29] 'Til I'm sure that you're dead
[04:56.94]
