[Verse 1]
Excuse me sir, you have a licence for that war
Raising Sodom and Gomorrah but what about tomorrow
Hey Mr. President you never present no evidence
When it is fully evident that your habit needs betterment
Yes I know who you are but could you please breathe in this bag
And now let me see how straight a line you walk
How come you slur your speech like your words are out of reach
See people like you just don't practise what they preach
You say the people shall not kill
When you have blood on your hands
You say the people shall not steal
When you just take what you can
Why can't you keep it real
Why can't you just come straight
I wonder how you sleep
Or if one day you will break

[Chorus]
We've got to reach up as high as we can reach
Teach those with guns the power of speech
Remove our bullets from the breach
And feather a nest for the dove of peace
For the love of peace

[Verse 2]
Gather the nest it's in our own interest
Tell me who wants to see that (the) red button being pressed
See there's war in the east and there's war in the west
They say god bless us they're saying god bless U.S
Why not invest the same amount of interest
In some other places where the oil doesn't rest
All people are blessed and this life is a test
I make just one request let us clean up this mess
[Chorus]
We've got to reach up as high as we can reach
Teach those with guns the power of speech
Remove our bullets from the breach
And feather a nest for the dove of peace
For the love of peace
For the love of peace

[Verse 3]
Is it the drugs that we take
The doctrines in our head
I know we're not like that
I know we're not all bad
We like to see children play, see them o.k
Whatever happens, why take that away

[Chorus]
We've got to reach up as high as we can reach
Teach those with guns the power of speech
Remove our bullets from the breach
And when it's done
Feather a nest for the dove of peace
For the love of peace
Reach up as high as we can reach
Everyone teach those with guns the power of speech
Remove our bullets from the breach
And when it's done
Feather a nest for the dove of peace
For the love of peace
For the love of peace
For the love of peace
For the love of peace
