Letter to Eve |
Oh Eve, where is Adam? |
Now you’re kicked out of the garden |
Oh Eve, where is Adam? |
Now you’re kicked out of the garden |
Been wandering from shore to shore |
Now you find there’s no more |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Don’t you wish love, love alone |
Could save this world from disaster? |
Don’t you wish love, love alone |
Could save this world from disaster? |
If only love could end the confusion |
Or is it just one more illusion? |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Well, if you want to have great love |
You got to have great anger |
Well, if you want to have great love |
You got to have great anger |
When I see innocent folk shot down |
Should I just shake my head and frown? |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Well, if you want to hit the target square |
You better have blind anger |
Well, if you want to hit the target square |
You better have blind anger |
Or else it’ll be just one more time |
The correction creates another crime |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Oh Eve, you tell Adam |
Next time he asks you |
Oh Eve, you tell Adam |
Next time he asks you |
He’ll say baby, it’s cold outside |
What’s the password to come inside? |
You say, oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Oh Eve, go tell Adam |
We got build a new garden |
Oh Eve, go tell Adam |
We got build a new garden |
We got to get workin' on the building |
Of a decent for all o' God’s children |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
If music could only bring peace |
I’d only be a musician |
If music could only bring peace |
I’d only be a musician |
If songs could more than dull the pain |
If melodies could break these chains |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Four thousand languages in this world |
Means the same thing to every boy and girl |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
Oh pacem in terris, mir, shanti, salaam, hey wa |
