We’ve all been dehumanized A generation of the same old lies Security is the alibi We lose a day in the cycle of life Evolution of your fellow man Going around circles in the desert sand We lose the loved ones protecting us It’s just another day On this memorial day The hippies and the poets and the Spartans say Forget the reasons why we war This is the season we’ve been waiting for Memorial day It’s a rich man’s war but the poor will pay Since the logic never comes to mind Innocence is lost and guilt will fade in time You turn around to face your death You wish your mother could be there To share your last breath Another good one has gone down And we mourn the lost On this memorial day The hippies and the poets and the Spartans say Forget the reasons why we war This is the season we’ve been waiting for Memorial day It’s a rich man’s war but the poor will pay Since the logic never comes to min Innocence is lost and guilt will fade in time Turn on your TV, watch a movie and lay back Pollute your mind you’re next in line Insanity is just a matter of time On this memorial day The hippies and the poets and the Spartans say Forget the reasons why we war This is the season we’ve been waiting for Memorial day It’s a rich man’s war but the poor will pay Since the logic never comes to mind Innocence is lost and guilt will fade in time On memorial day Be strong, let peace be the way Break the cycle of hate and lies Let the truth be realized Memorial day...memorial day
