Please lay down your pistols and your rifles

Please lay down your colours and your creeds

Please lay down your thoughts of being no-one

Concentrate on what you ought to be

Then lay down your bullshit and your protests

Then lay down your governments of greed

Take a look at what lies all around you

Then pray god we can live in peace

Everyone's a loner 'till he needs a helping hand

Everyone is everybody else

Everyone's a no-one 'till he wants to make a stand

God alone knows how we will survive

So please lay down your pistols and your rifles

Please lay down your colours and your creeds

Please lay down your thoughts of being no-one

Concentrate on what you ought to be

Everyone's a loner 'till he needs a helping hand

Everyone is everybody else

Everyone's a no-one 'till he wants to make a stand

God alone knows how we will survive
