Peace Breaks Out


Janie had a gun

Now she don't have one

When she woke up she just didn't need it

Frankie had a knife

Used it all his life

But he tossed it and did not retrieve it

Larry used his fist

But he turned his wrist

He hails a waitress at the coffee counter

Suzie's in a gang

But she turned and ran

Now she's a model to the friends around her

Peace breaks out on the Saturday sun

And now it's three o'clock in the morning

Thousands in the street

Beat a soft retreat

They left their cars and they just started walking

Nothing is real

Cross to Strawberry Fields

They sat down and they started talking

Peace breaks out in the Saturday sun

And now it's three o'clock in the morning

Janie had a gun

But she don't need one...

Frankie had a knife

Used it all his life…

Glaze in his eye

Catcher in The Rye

Goes from Central Park to The Dakota

No one says why, but he walks on by

John Lennon smiles from his Toyota, yeah!

Peace breaks out all over the world
