Come you masters of war
1:29:02
You that build the big guns

You that build the death planes
1:29:10
You that build all the bombs
1:29:14
You that hide behind walls

1:29:39
All the pale afternoon
1:29:43

1:29:47
Down to your deathbed
1:29:51
And I'll stand over your grave
till I'm sure that you're dead
