Lyrics Big Country – What About Peace

I was a keeper in the Garden of Eden
I never knew what those kids were eatin’
I couldn’t tell about the snake and the apple
Cause I never get close to anything that a-rattles

I was the pilot of a nuclear bomber
I knew the rules about glory and honor
I never know how many people we carpet
Cause I don’t build the things, I only drop it

What about peace
What about love
What about me and you
What about the truth
What about changing your mind
While you still have time
To make up your mind

I was the leader of the United Nations
I dealt in platitude and procrastination
I never worried about making decisions
Well there wasn’t any danger of me going to prison

What about peace
What about love
What about me and you
What about the truth
What about changing your mind

What about peace
What about love
What about me and you
What about the truth
What about changing your mind
While you still have time

I was the pilot of a nuclear bomber
I knew the rules about glory and honor
I never know how many people cop it
Cause I don’t build the things, I only drop it
