Throw away your guns and bombs, the time for peace is here.

Some deserve to be remembered, for the seeds of love they’ve sown.
Hold them up, in high regard, for human kindness they have shown.
Some deserve to be reviled, for all the killing they have done.
Slaying fathers and their wives, murdering daughters and their sons.

Hatred and hostility, has no place in society,
We must know that warfare, can have no-part, in our destiny.
Power and greed is at the root, of all, hell-bent on waging war,
No-one sane can justify, what any killing has been for.

CHORUS
Stamp out the fires of hatred, we don’t want their flames near,
Throw away your guns and bombs, the time for peace is here.
Stamp out the fires of hatred, we don’t want their flames near,
Throw away your guns and bombs, the time for peace is here.

Whatever the root of all your hate, let the death and carnage cease.
Where’s the sense in spilling blood? We all want to live in peace.
Shout out loud, for all to hear, the voice of folk like you and me,
Who only want to see an end, to endless death and misery.

CHORUS

Stamp out…………………..Stamp out.(background chant) …….
Stamp out the fires of hatred, we don’t want their flames near,
Let us put an end to war, the time for peace is here.
Stamp out the fires of hatred, we don’t want their flames near,
Put an end to bloody war, the time for peace is here.
Stamp out the fires of hatred, we don’t want their flames near,
Put an end to killing, the time for peace is here here
Stamp out the fires of hatred, we don’t want their flames near,
Throw away your guns and bombs, the time for peace is here.
