about

Based on an initial musical and lyrical idea of Rory's, Bob added a few verses and chord changes to produce this final result.

lyrics

Flower Balm (Quinn-Bryden)

Peace and love my brothers
Should apply to everyone
Not just the war machine
and the feral guns

Your wars are sick and pitiful
Your wars they are no fun
But there’s a simple answer
Put a flower in the gun

Your angry minds and religious views
Breed casualties of war
and entertainment for the news

Stop the march for power
Learn to get along
Let’s drop a bomb that’s full of
flowers - flowers and a song.

It may seem so mundane
To make it sound too easy
But we’ve got so much to gain
and we’ve lost so much already

You know this universe
can be a cold and heartless place
But we’re the ones who choose
Just how we end this race.

Heck no - we won’t go.
