Poem
This is a song for a man, it’s a song for a boy for a woman or girl This is a song for the straight and the gay It’s a song for the whole of the world This is a song for the cheerful, the fearful and those who must stand up and fight This is a song for the brave and the bold and for those who are forced to take flight Tyrannical despots, marauding invaders Who see no wrong in what they’ve done For those who would seek to be conquering raiders There’s no song… so you can do one The justice of peace shall embolden our hearts We’ll face down your missiles and bombs The angels for you have no tune in their harps So you'll have to sing your own songs This is a song for the black and the white It’s a song for all shades in between This is a song for the whole human race And for you if you land and you're green This is a song for the rich and the poor Notwithstanding your hue or your tongue This is a song for the peaceful at war It’s a song for the old and the young Tyrannical despots, marauding invaders Who see no wrong in what they’ve done For those who would seek to be conquering raiders There’s no song… so you can do one The justice of peace shall embolden our hearts We’ll face down your missiles and bombs The angels for you have no tune in their harps So you'll have to sing your own songs For this is a song to be sung with a smile on your face A song to be sung anytime, to be sung anyplace Where ‘Vive la difference’ puts the ‘human’ in the human race And this song should only be sung with a smile on your face
