Lyrics
English: Oh no, I don't want to go / Want to tell the world to bring our brother home / That's all we want to show, the innocent lives... / Come on people, bring them home / Bring our brothers home, bring them home... / While you're out getting drunk at your party / Some other mother's son will die / A foolish war we shouldn't be in / Bring them home, stop the killing
