Story Behind The Song
We got to thinking of the history of the world and that most evil, hatred, violence, bloodshed and wars were all created by men - NOT women. We are not saying that there have never been any ' bad ' women in the history of the world BUT the majority of problems come from men.

We got to thinking of the history of the world and that most evil, hatred, violence, bloodshed and wars were all created by men - NOT women. We are not saying that there have never been any ' bad ' women in the history of the world BUT the majority of problems come from men.
We took a funky groove with keys, bass and guitar and added a mizmar )Middle Eastern reeded oboe / horn, a dumber (Middle Eastern drum) and riq (Middle Eastern tambourine) to give it a worldly spin.

Lyrics
Lots of people in the world and definitely right and wrong
Many questions to be answered so hear the difference in everybody's song
Now here's my question - when's the last time a woman started a war?
Have you seen any rape and pillage or kill to even the score?
And when we watch TV and see images of hate and death
Ever see a mother stand in line to take someone's last breath?
Will we come together? Will we ever see?
What's right for you may be never be right for me
We been talking about it for a long long time -
this thing called peace n love / this thing called peace n love.
Big boys play penis politics, power & testosterone games
While woman are nurturing the children, hoping to keep the world sane
And if you look at most murder, genocide and crime
You'll see a man or his absence so much of the time.
Will we come together? Will we ever see?
What's right for you may be never be right for me
We been talking about it for a long long time -
this thing called peace n love / this thing called peace n love.
We don't need more misogynist evil and the bloodshed it creates
Good men step up - be good dads - stop the cycle of anger and hate
Join the Global Village with tongues and tapestries that rhyme
Give the Goddess power to heal the wounds of time
Will we come together? Will we ever see?
What's right for you may be never be right for me
We been talking about it for a long long time -
this thing called peace n love / this thing called peace n love.
this thing called peace n love / this thing called peace n love.
this thing called peace n love / this thing called peace n love.
this thing called peace n love / this thing called peace n love.
