Bomb the World Lyrics
Please tell me the reason
behind the colors that you fly
love just one nation
and the whole world we divide
you say you’re “sorry”
say, “there is no other choice”
but god bless the people them
who cannot raise their voice
(chorus)
we can chase down all our enemies
bring them to their knees
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can’t bomb it into peace
whoa we may even find a solution
to hunger and disease
we can bomb the world to pieces
but we can’t bomb it into peace
violence brings one thing
more more of the same
military madness
the smell of flesh and burning pain
so I sing out to the masses
stand up if you’re still sane!
To all of us gone crazy
I sing this one refrain
(chorus)
and I sing power to the peaceful
love to the people y’all
power to the peaceful
love to the people y’all

OH GOD COME ON THIS SONG IS SO FRIGGAN WONDERFUL. Just say that you think it's wonderful is all you've gotta do.
mmmmmmm.
I agree, wonderful song! Although I prefer disposable heros of hiphoprisy, I still love speahead!
I LOVE MICHEAL FRANTI.
this song has the best message out of any song ive ever heard. go buy a cd, or burn one, or steal one. its that good. (well maybe dont steal one, but burnings okay!)
"We could bomb the world to pieces, but we can't bomb it into peace."
That line is fucking brilliant.
I LOVE THIS SONG, PERIOD. Every word of every line and every guitar strum and drum line is so amazing, I can't get over it. This song, and "Oh My God" were the two songs that got me hooked.
Actually stealing one would be fine, but steal it from your local best buy, not your local independent record store!! If you do steal one make sure you support michael franti and spearhead by buying their merch or checking them out on tour!! Steal from the corporations not the artists!!
OMG you all made me very happy, I feel xactly the same way about My Michael and this song is perfect evidence. I'm gonna go listen again right now, dance around and yell, "power to the peaceful"! Michael Franti, the music the man the message, has Got me, lol. :P
Ooh and to you guys here, "stay human" ok? and for everyone on SM, "everyone deserves music" So go now, and be like "the heat of the sun or the skin on the drum". mad props :D
