Peace Song 2011

Music by Salla Hakkola

Alright all you little piggies and birds out there!

Here's a little story for you...

Please remember, it's December.

Now listen piggies and birds, here's the thing.

Let's tell a story, that's not so gory,

Turn your slingshots into swings.

This the season when there is a reason

To forget and forgive your foes.

Everybody knows

It's the friendliest time of the year!

I'm recommending, a different ending

Perhaps a gentler approach, another style.

In this fable, you might be able

Even to make the Mighty Eagle smile.

All this commotion, the endless explosion

Will turn you into turkey and ham,

Eggs on a frying pan.

Find a little friendlier plan.

Stop fighting all the time, it's absurd!

Don't be so angry, little birds,

'Cause it's time to sing,

Join your hooves and wings,

Forget the useless war.

It's love that we need more

Beaks and snouts, all sing out loud

The song that should be heard;

Let there be peace on earth!

Let there be peace on earth!

Beaks and snouts, all sing out loud

The song that should be heard;

Let there be peace on earth!

Let there be peace on earth!
