this is for people on both sides of the 'war' in Gaza

what kind of man by Eric Bogle

What kind of man is he and which cause did he use
When he placed the bomb, when he set the fuse
did he walk away crying liberty
and if he did what kind of man was he

did he sleep well the night deft to to dying last screams
did no bloody ghosts walk through his dreams
does he shed innocent blood as part of a grand strategy
and if does what kind of man is he

ch
for all the tears and mourning
for all those you've maimed and killed
for all the murdered children
god damn your soul to hell

is he a family man does he any kids
will they ever understand what their father did
does he use noble words like freedom form tyranny
and if he does what kind of man is he

are you out tonight wearing your everyman's face
do you still see yourself as part of the human race
in spite of the murder you've done and the killing that you've yet to do
and that's why I ask what kind of man are you

from Gethsemane to Auschwitz the man with the gun
has stood between us and what we could of become
shall we be dragged once again into barbarity
if we let them do that what kind of men are we
