Well it was 1969
The streets were on fire
But only in black and white
When I was only a boy
Well, I saw them crucify
Oh, what an awful sight
The streets were on fire
But only in black and white
When I was only a boy
Well, I saw them crucify
Oh, what an awful sight
And it looked like a holy war
Was anybody keeping score?
Was anybody keeping score?

Love is needed
Can anybody see it?
Maria love
Why we wait and hesitate
Love is needed
Can anybody see it?
Maria love
Why we wait and hesitate
Well, some stayed in bed for peace
And some took giant leaps
And four and a friend played on a rooftop
All the science in the world
Couldn't save us from ourselves
Oh Lord, when will it ever stop?
And some took giant leaps

All the science in the world
Couldn't save us from ourselves
Oh Lord, when will it ever stop?
'Cause it looked like a holy war
Oh, and no-one was keeping score
Oh, and no-one was keeping score

Flowers can grow through cement
Great oaks and rivers bend
Power to the people, let's not pretend
When will the madness end?
