Let no one think this is easy That Bush can spout some pretty story And make it all alright
Let no one think this is simple Like cowboys in black hats and white Fighting the good fight
The shades of grey are many People ALWAYS killed for noble causes Who's 'right' depends on who you are
It was 'right' for Reagan to back Pinochet And thousands died for that It was 'right' for napalm in 'Nam Burning children where they sat
It was 'right' for Sharon to bulldoze a woman And bury her in rubble It was 'right' for Clinton to bomb Libya And bring THAT country trouble
Where you stand rests on where you sit We all want a peaceful life But if your life is full of ***** Hatred becomes rife
Now we have Morrocco And tomorrow who knows where? Bush will mouth words written To make him seem strong and fair
But another bomber will be born Who hears only hatred Bombs will be born in the heart Until humanity is sacred
There must come a time For solutions Not simply words of hate If we don't seek understanding It may all end up too late
