[bodytext] => Deliver me now to a world where there’s none Of these battles and wars of men with the gun. Take me away to a place that is me And live in a world not as I, but as we. A world for my son and my daughters to be Safe in the knowledge that old age they will see. Deliver me now to a world that is fun And children play safe all day in the sun Not needing to fear the evil of age That can only be found in the hate and the rage Of men and of women whose best years are gone With belief it is they who should say how we’re run Go back to your lives you hawks with your wars You don’t represent me with your secrets and laws Don’t go through this world like its only a game For this evil you do, I say Not In My Name!
