Lyrics
First they feed the rich
Then they starve the poor
You know they have alot
But they want more
As they seek more wealth
Spread their armies wide
Fly some B-2 Stealths
Then they choose their side
It doesn't have to be this way
Let the world be safe for one more day
Stop before they push that button down
That send those missiles off the ground
Kill those leaders there
They weren't so nice it's true
The innocent beware
You'll get killed too
Strike with shock and awe
Take those cities down
It's the power struggle law
That steals the crown
It doesn't have to be this way
Let the world be safe another day
Still they'll push that button down
And make those missiles leave the ground
Watch them fly
People die
There they go
Then explode
Greed corrupts the mortal minds
It's been this way since the start of time
If it doesn't cease
How can there be world peace
So as the world stands now
With it's greed and hate
We understand just how
Some met their fate
The powerful can't see
They just take a bow
For what they call world peace
But who dies now
It doesn't have to be this way
Let the world be safe another day
Still they'll push that button down
And make those missiles leave the ground
Watch them fly
People die
There they go
Then explode
Greed corrupts the mortal minds
It's been this way since the start of time
If it doesn't cease
How can there be world peace
