Ode to Pacification

I don't know how far the peacemakers will take their
metallic roar of peace
but there are certain insurance brokers who sell
policies against peacemaking
and there are those who'll seek the death penalty for
those who don't want to be pacified

when the peacemakers aim, they fire, of course to make peace
and sometimes they even make peace for two birds with one stone

clearly, there's always some fool who refuses to
be pacified behind his back
or some idiot who resists a gradual peace
we really are a strange country, aren't we
he who pacifies the peacemakers will finally have achieved peace.
