Guy Michetti - Don't Learn War
	lyrics
Don't Learn War Beat your swords into plowshares Put down your bayonets of fear Yet no one listened to the prophets then And now we're destined for tears Sons of darkness, children of light The teacher of war lingers on There'll be blood on the altar of the citadels All in the name of God You diplomats and bureaucrats Ministers of hate, power and lust You tell your truth with a wink and smile But you're losin' everyone's trust From the sands of Mecca to the shores New York They spill the blood of holy war The mullahs lie as they twist the prophet's words The jihad to fight is the one in your soul Don't learn war any more Don't learn war war war Don't learn war anymore, anymore You call me a traitor and a pacifist, brother you don't have a clue I'm willing to fight and die for my rights Only in a cause that's true The soldiers on the line are brave and strong. They're you sons and your daughters, your neighbors and friends I say bring 'em all home, send politicians instead, Preferably Republicans Jesus Christ the prince of peace Stands bewildered in dread, shock and awe If you live by the sword you'll die by the same Don't spill innocent blood in my name And no one can tell me I don't love this land By her I always will stand We must learn the song of peace in our hearts For the world's future lies in our hands Don't learn war any more Don't learn war war war Don't learn war anymore, anymore The battle to fight is to learn what is right Love your brothers and sisters with deeds God doesn't want the sacrifice of blood and war The real sacrifice is to all live in peace. Don't learn war any more Don't learn war war war Don't learn war anymore, anymore Copyright Guy Michetti 2003 BMI
