    Lyrics
    You've had such a sweet life
    The times have been serene
    But hatred always simmers
    Angeline
    Oh Angeline

    So now the drums are beating
    The missiles soon may fly
    And the little boy you've cherished
    May have to die
    May have to die

    Chorus:

    So take all your irony and throw it on the ground
    All of the detachment and dark humor that you've found
    There's evil here among us, and there's danger all around
    Oh Angeline, there's some sad times coming round
    Oh Angeline, there's some bad times coming down

    You cried when he enlisted
    So tall and brave and true
    Sweet memories of his childhood
    Came back to you
    Came back to you

    And all the other mothers
    Christian, Muslim, Jew
    How will they find their children
    When it's all through
    When it's all through

    CHORUS

    Come down to earth, sweet Jesus
    Mohammed, we're on our knees
    Save your children from each other
    Won't you please
    Oh, can't you please
