Story Behind the Song
This song was originally written about the Cuban Missle crisis, but it seems even more relevant to the crisis of current times.
Lyrics
Your children will never know
how close we came
to perishing
in a ball of flame.
When the Missles of October stood
against the sky,
nations trembled as men played God
with all our lives.
As the Eagle and the Bear
struggled for control,
the Dragon slipped into the scene
and the game turned cold.
All the leaders convinced their tribes
that they needed more;
"He who has the biggest gun,
avoids a war".
Now the winds are blowing change.
Who bears the lance?
No one's watching as the Camel lurks
to steal his chance.
No more teachers,
No more books,
No more playgrounds,
No more world!
I hope the children never know
that we're to blame.
We build the demons then we tear them down
to hide our shame.
No more teachers,
No more books,
No more playgrounds,
No more world!
