I won't throw a straw to the lords of this society
Built on arrogance, lying and stupidity
I don't hold a hope for the man with a pen in his hand
Signing the papers for taking the life of a lamb
Oh, but I need a friend
Oh, but I need a friend
And those that I love
There's more to living than giving a holiday
If we lived according to Jesus
Life would be one anyway
Pity the fool who shoots down another man's son
Protecting the perverted values that gave him a gun
He surely needs a friend
He surely needs a friend
And those that orders are orders
Is one of their many lies
Not far away from the campus
The enemy's mother cries
Didn't you realize
We're all mother's children
We're all mother's children
We surely need a friend
We surely need a friend
