A peaceful start to our friends' punk rock camping weekend in Ft. De Soto.

ANTI-FLAG - "Power To The Peaceful"

Sons and daughters of a dream
The urge to struggle for an ideal
To stay and fight
Oppose war fever
Refuse to kill or be killed

There's voices calling in the wind

Power to the Peaceful
Power to the peaceful
Whoa-oh!

Let's Go!
Oh yeah!
Alright!

With a readiness for war
They come down hard in dissent of all forms
Blood and militarism has swept the country by storm

There's voices calling in the wind

Power to the Peaceful
Power to the Peaceful
Whoa-oh!
Power to the Peaceful
Power to the Peaceful
Whoa-oh!

This is not a war
of the urging people
This is not a war
of economic independance
It's a war for conquest
It's a war for military power
It's a war for money
The road to universal slaughter

Sons and daughters of a dream
The urge to struggle for an ideal
To stay and fight
Oppose war fever
Refuse to kill or be killed

There's voices calling in the wind
Power to the Peaceful
You know it's Power to the Peaceful

Alright, check this out
There's repression and intolerance
On any deviation from the norm
In all factions of your life
At this time of entry
Into war say Hey-Hey
Do you know what they sing. Say Hey! - Hey!
Yeah you know what they sing. Say Hey! - Hey!
Do you know what they sing? Say Hey! - Hey! - Hey!

Power to the Peaceful
Power to the Peaceful
Whoa-oh!
Power to the Peaceful
Power to the Peaceful
Whoa-oh!
Alright!
Whoa-oh! Whoa-oh! Whoa-oh!
Yeah!
