  • Think the world
    Can be Black, White, and Jew?

    Peacemaker die
    I'm Mister 'Righteous One'
    You say you have this plan
    If we kind of understand

    Peacemaker die
    I'm Mister 'Nice Guy'
    You dare to speak the truth
    Well, I'll twist and turn it into lies

    Blessed are the warmongers
    (Blessed are the warmongers)
    Blessed are the warmongers
    (Blessed are the warmongers)
    They shall be called man made Gods

    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    I don't know why?
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die

    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    I don't know why?

    Peacemaker die
    I'm mister goody too
    Do you really think the world
    Can be Black, White, and Jew?

    Peacemaker die
    Mister music man
    Don't turn your back on me
    'Cause I'm the one with the gun

    Blessed are the warmongers
    (Blessed are the warmongers)
    Blessed are the warmongers
    (Blessed are the warmongers)
    They shall be called sons of God

    I don't know why?
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    I don't know why?
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die

    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    I don't know why?

    Eeh ah

    I have a dream this afternoon
    That the brotherhood of man
    Will become a reality in this day
    With this faith
    I will go out and
    Carve the tunnel of hope
    Through the mountain of despair
    With this faith
    I will go out with you and
    Transform dark the yesterdays
    Into bright tomorrows
    With this faith
    We will be able to achieve this new day
    When all of the God's children
    Black men and White men
    Jews and Gentiles
    Protestants and Catholics
    Will be able to join hands
    And sing with the Negroes
    In the spiritual head
    (Peacemaker die)
    Free at last, free at last
    (Peacemaker die)
    Thank God Almighty
    We're free at last

    I don't know why?
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die

    Peacemaker die
    (Peacemaker die)
    Peacemaker die
    Peacemaker die
    I don't know why? Yeah
    Peacemaker die
    Just one last time
