Chas Winperis Poet Ballad

2000 Years

Theres a man in the streets and he,s calling out your name
Dont you know by now that it,s how you play the game

  For two thousand years ,we,ve been fighting your wars
I,m here to tell you now ,i cant fight no more
 
You see,the preacher,the prophet , the bobby on the beat
 And if i was,nt listening ,they,d soon have me to eat
 So come all ye faithfull and play a song 
 It is,nt very much and not very long

     About peace and forgiveness and all that is good
     Imagine now good people, if you could
    That all is forgiven,it,s a brand new day
    No greed standing in your way

It,s easy to write ,yet harder to do
come now people i,m talking to you

 For two thousand years we,ve been fighting your wars
 I,m here to tell you now ,you dont have to fight no more.

                                                                                     chazz
