Stop the Bombs

Stop the bombs,
The cities are eaten by napalm.
Stop the bombs
Keep calm and carry on

Stop the bombs,
We cant breathe
Stop the bombs
The military made us leave 

Save the homeless man 
Reading the psalms
Stop the bombs
No one to sing his song

Stop the bombs
Strife will be global
Stop the bombs
Fallen out like Chernobyl

Stop the bombs
We wanna see the sun
Lay down your knives and heavy guns
How many more bombs until there's none

Look up to the sky
See the dove fly
Hush the war drums
Maybe it will comfort some

Look up to the sky
Watch the dove fly
Branch in her beak
It is peace we seek.
