OUT OF ORDER

The world is out of order
there's fighting at the borders
misery and greed are found
where peace and plenty should abound
our leaders are corrupted
lies drip off every word
people dying all around
their cries are never heard

The world is out of order
lets tighten up the borders
terrorists are maniacs
waiting for the next attack
suicide bombers everywhere
killing peacekeepers they don't care
terrifying everyone
societies coming all undone

The world is out of order
stop them at the borders
no solutions to be found
pointing fingers all around
an eye for an eye is what they say
but only the innocent have to pay
suffering, heartache, death in war
can't take this violence anymore

The world is out of order
they can't control the borders
now they've gone into Iraq
waiting for them to fight back
showing images loud and clear
women and children standing there
living every day in fear
their voices never heard

The world is out of order
now they patrol the borders
who's in charge? what's the plan?
they don't even understand
violence, evil is that the key?
they never found the WMD's
bomb the buildings, kill the man
take the oil, rape the land

The world is out of order
the war has crossed all borders
rearrange, make the changes
before all these lives are wasted
shock and awe is what we see
show the bodies on T.V.
airplanes buried in the sand
free the people, it's their land

The world is out of order
we must take down the borders
this evil has become so strong
our leaders can't tell right from wrong
we see the suffering, poverty, pain
always the same, who's to blame?
free the people from this war
there is no order anymore

Let's just hang up a sign
OUT OF ORDER
