We Don't Care (Speech to Humanity) Lyrics

We don't want to hate and despise one another

In this world there's room for everyone

And the good earth is rich

And can provide for everyone

The way of life can be free and beautifull

But we have lost the way

Our knowledge has made us cynical

Our cleverness hard and unkind

We think too much and feel too little

More than machinery we need humanity

More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness

Without these qualities

Life will be violent and all will be lost

Lights fire and flames

we will not be the same

you don't care

People shout the fears

Children cry the tears

You don't care

War source of pain

War like a veil

That wraps in the darkness of all your vanity

And I don't care that you are in the right of an idea or not

Wars and fears you are so near

You still come back to teach the end of life

And of all new hopes

Wars and fears it is so clear

You still come back to teach the start of pain

And of the coming blood

Why w'll see in our hands

When we'don't prevent your coming

You commander

Cursed murder wretchet

You don't care

I'm sorry but I don't want to be an emperor

Your order is like a noise

We don't want now your choise

you don't care

I don't want to rule or conquer anyone

Hearts now are pure

Now We will find the cure

That will drive away all your destructiveness

And I don't care that you are

I should like to help everyone if possible

Jew Gentile black man white

in the right of an idea or not

Wars and fearswhy you are so near

How much in vain I've tried to understand

What is your sense

Wars and fears the heart is so clear

No one won the last war and no one

Will win the next war

Why we don't understand

The nonsence of our tragic end

Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!

In the seventeenth chapter of St Luke it is written

That the kingdom of God is within man

Not one man nor a group of men

But in all men! In you! You the people have the power

The power to create machines the power to create happiness!

You the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful

To make this life a wonderful adventure

No matter how necessary

Nor how justified is not a crime

War and fear

But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise

They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people

Now let us fight to fulfill that promise

Let us fight to free the world!

To do away with national barriers!

To do away with greed with hate and intolerance!

Let us fight for a world of reason

A world where science and progress

Will lead to all men's happiness

Soldiers in the name of democracy let us all unite

You don't care
