When Think Tanks Run Dry

When think tanks run dry, Will the people ask why, Bullets are bouncing off the tanks, That were once intellectual banks. When the think tanks run dry, Is there anywhere now where people can try, To stop the die being cast, For the dogs of war to be released from the past. When the think tanks run dry, Where will we get the positive energy we need to buy, At any price, to refill the think tanks, With thoughts that are not blanks. When the think tanks run dry, And all we can do is sigh, As more grenades are tossed, Has the chance for peace been lost.
