Come you masters of war come you masters of war

You that build all the guns you that build all the guns

You that build the death planes you that build the death planes

You that build all the bombs you that build all the bombs

You that hide behind walls you that hide behind walls

You that hide behind desks you that hide behind desks

I just want you to know I just want you to know

I can see through your masks I can see through your masks

You that never done nothing you that never done nothing

But build to destroy but build to destroy

You play with my world you play with my world

Like it's your little toy like it's your little toy

You put a gun in my hand you put a gun in my hand

And you hide from my eyes and you hide from my eyes

And you turn and run farther and you turn and run farther

When the fast bullets fly when the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old like Judas of old

You lie and deceive you lie and deceive

A world war can be won a world war can be won

You want me to believe you want me to believe

But I see through your eyes but I see through your eyes

And I see through your brain and I see through your brain

Like I see through the water like I see through the water

That runs down my drain that runs down my drain

You fasten all the triggers you fasten all the triggers

For the others to fire for the others to fire

Then you set back and watch then you set back and watch

When the death count gets higher

When the death count gets higher

You hide in your mansion you hide in your mansion

As young people's blood as young people's blood

Flows out of their bodies flows out of their bodies

And is buried in the mud and is buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear you've thrown the worst fear

That can ever be hurled that can ever be hurled

Fear to bring children fear to bring children

Into the world into the world

For threatening my baby for threatening my baby

Unborn and unnamed unborn and unnamed

You ain't worth the blood you ain't worth the blood

That runs in your veins that runs in your veins

How much do I know how much do I know

To talk out of turn to talk out of turn

You might say that I'm young you might say that I'm young

You might say I'm unlearned you might say I'm unlearned

But there's one thing I know but there's one thing I know

Though I'm younger than you though I'm younger than you

That even Jesus would never that even Jesus would never

Forgive what you do forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question let me ask you one question

Is your money that good is your money that good

Will it buy you forgiveness will it buy you forgiveness

Do you think that it could do you think that it could

I think you will find I think you will find

When your death takes its toll when your death takes its toll

All the money you made all the money you made

Will never buy back your soul will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die and I hope that you die

And your death'll come soon and your death'll come soon

I will follow your casket I will follow your casket

In the pale afternoon In the pale afternoon

And I'll watch while you're lowered

And I'll watch while you're lowered

Down to your deathbed down to your deathbed

I 'll stand over your grave I 'll stand over your grave

Til I'm sure that you're dead til I'm sure that you're dead
