Select language to translate this lyric
A bomb drops on some wedding party
But these arenât people we count worthy
Un-named, unimportant, in some non-place
Brown skins usually.
More settlements on the West Bank
And evictions in Jerusalem
Such righteous men with their righteous wars
And their righteous talks of peace.
If I believed in God I would ask him
Could we start all over again
Thatâs what I would ask him
If I believed in God I would ask him
Could we start all over again
Thatâs what I would ask himâ¦..
Do without the kings and those who strive
To live above the rest
And can âtruthâ mean what it says
And not what power thinks is best.
No serpent please nor all the fear
Of women, sex and love
And not worship men
Who once would sacrifice their only son.
More and more I turn away from so much I know is true
Turn right to the back page
And bury myself in transfer news
Donât want to hear about some woman stoned
Or blasphemer running for his life
Many now they do fight back
But I deny is how I survive.
