Peace Medley by Don DeBar and Friends
When I was a kid
In school
We pulled the lids of our desks down
Put our heads on the ground and
Waited for The Bomb's sounds
Every night
Dreams of fire and light
And the end of it all
We were just so small
Huddled in the dark halls
Didn't they see
The world they'd made up for their kids
Was going down?
Wasn't that enough to wake them up?
Watched the NV
On our home TV
And saw the bombs fly
Watched the people die
And the mothers cry
Cousins Joe and Phil
Both came home killed
I was next to die
Could feel the end nigh
So I asked "Why?"
Couldn't they see
The world they'd made up for us kids
Was going down?
Wasn't that enough to wake them up?

Planes start to fly
Dark Birds flying high
Thought we had enough -
Ain't it been enough?
Ain't that enough?
So many people dyin'
Cities burning in the sky
Ain't that enough
To wake you up?
Please won't you wake up!
Can't you see
The world we're leaving to our kids
Is going down?
Ain't that enough to wake you up?
