It’s old men who send our young to war.
I don’t listen to them anymore.
It’s time to stand up, say nevermore,
it’s old men who send our young to war.
I’ve seen the play and ask once more,
what the hell are we fighting for?
It’s old men who send our young to war.
I don’t listen to them anymore.

Earth's fever removes rivers
Spring's new lambs still sleep

My heart sings its song,
Spring rains on the horizon.
We must mend the roof
