| Five men were killed today, | |
| Leaving five wives as widows. | |
| Six men they tried to kill. | |
| Maybe one will live to raise his son. | |
| I've tried so hard | |
| To tell you what went wrong. | |
| Been fighting for so many years | |
| For something so very wrong. | |
| When will man ever learn | |
| That happiness is his to be earned? |
