World Peace

From Andover to Anaheim Bangor to Boise People speak up Come on, get noisy From Carteret in Jersey To Cameroon far away Speak up everyone If just for one day From Detroit to Dallas Eaton to Ecuador Come on everyone Speak up some more From France and to Finland Ghana to Greece People speak up To bring about peace From Halifax to Haiti Indiana to Iraq If we all scream up Peace might just come back Jerusalem to Jersey Killarney to Kildare Peace can resurface If together we share Lisbon to Lima Michigan to Maine Let’s make one voice For peace is the gain Netherlands to New England Oahu to Oslo Come on everyone Let’s give it a go Poland to Pittsburgh Queens to Qatar With peace in our pockets We all can go far Roxbury to Riverhead Salisbury to Siam We’ll acquire the peace Just as we plan Togo and Tobago Uruguay to Ulster It can all come true If we’re ready to muster Venezuela to Venice Wyoming to Whales Keep peace in our sights Our plan will not fail To get to our Xanadu We just cannot stop Keep screaming for peace We’ll soon see the top Yugoslavia to Yemen Zimbabwe to Zaire Once peace has been gotten We’ll have nothing to fear Come on everyone! Scream!
