No war no greed That would be something to see I hope I live that long No blood in the streets Just a distant memory The history books recount Now were all free Now were all free No war no greed That would be something to see I hope I live that long No want no need The struggle to end poverty Finally has been won Now were all free Now were all free No war no greed That would be something to see I hope I live that long Hold my constitution And have the courage of heart and mind To right what is wrong Now were all free Now were all free But now you can't believe What you're told You can't believe what you hear The speeches of the politicians Ring untrue and insincere You can't believe what you read You can't believe what's said They count the targets and the bombs But do not count the dead They do not count the dead No war no greed That would be something to see I hope I live that long Not lose my faith In every word on the page In the face of freedom No war no greed No war no greed No war no greed
