Lyrics
There's been such wars where more will come
If we don't act now while we can
We tried to achieve peace for thousands of years
But we haven't learned a thing
Look at all of the tears
Hey we're the poe we're the people of earth
We're gonna write a letter and take it to the UN
Hey we're the poe we're the people of earth
We're gonna stop the wars and tell the UN that's an order
From the beginning of time as far as we know
We've commited such attrocities they've got to end
We've come so far through our human destiny
That we should be able to achieve world peace
Hey we're the poe we're the people of earth
We're gonna write a letter and take it to the UN
Hey we're the poe we're the people of earth
We're gonna stop the wars and tell the UN that's an order
One day we'll be at the future's front door
What do we tell our children do we want them to war
We can stand now and start to understand
Inter-national sibling rivalry has got to end
Hey we're the poe we're the people of earth
We're gonna write a letter and take it to the UN
Hey we're the poe we're the people of earth
We're gonna stop the wars and tell the UN that's an order
