We Plant Soldiers In the Ground
We plant soldiers in the ground
To grow peace
Or so that’s what we’re told
Only the seeds of peace
Grow peace
That’s what i know
The lies and rhetoric of our politicians
Choke the roots of the truth
And over-water the brains of the politicians
Until they become soft blooming idiots
They say to die for one’s country is right
The only right is to live for peace
That’s what i know
