Peace

Why is everyone so angry?
That's not how it's supposed to go
Why can't we have world peace?
And be a big happy show

Let's make the world a better place
For our children to live in
Let's stop our arguments
And quit all our sins

World peace will come
If we just quit being mad
Start being better people
Being happy isn't all that bad

How about letting God take over
He will bring us world peace
He'll make us all better people
And that's just at least

So let's quit all our arguments
Quit all our sins
Be as happy as can be
And God will let us in
