Peace Before We Die
if we put aside our differences and pride
their interference with our stride
take down our defences which divide
open up eyes hearts and minds wide
and realise we'd unite on the same side
the day the aliens arrive
not through love that we've denied
but rather instinct to survive
and for one minute question why
on our palladium under the sky
we do not even begin to try
to find world peace before we die
