Our children are dying
And our homes are gone
Our wives are crying
It's been too long

Chorus:
And I'll stand up and take that chance
To kill a friend, I have to do
And I stand up and take that chance
To kill a friend, I have to do

On the playground
There's blood in the sand
And in the hideout
There's a gun in his hand

Chorus:
But I'll stand up and take that chance
To kill a friend, I have to do
And I stand up and take that chance
To kill a friend, I have to do

And I'll stand up and take that chance
To kill a friend, I have to do
And I'll stand up and take that chance
To kill a friend, we all must do
