Never Never ever will I query 
What lies beyond the Dead 
No race No religion not Country 
I will blindly not be duped or led 
Born to one Mother and lone Father 
Long bred from Dark Ancestor 
Neanderthal or Fontéchevade Brother 
Will I let some god put asunder 

No doubts No fears nor Myths 
To keep this World in one Family 
Never Never will I ever blunt Truths 
Split countries to foist ethnic party 
One father-mother One brother-sister 
No nose No chin No brow Nor skull 
One from the other higher or better 
What Just god would want us Hell 

No more wars to boost economy 
No more lurid lies to breed enmity 
No more priests dividing Almighty 
No more excuses to halt equality 
Never Never ever will I bury 
The Dead in shrouds blood red 
Gone to worlds far from envy 
Gone to worlds where gods aren't bred…
