Peace sells, but who's buying?

What do you mean: I don't believe in God?
I talk to him everyday
What do you mean: I don't support your system?
I go to court when I have to

What do you mean: I can't get to work on time?
I got nothing better to do
What do you mean: I don't pay my bills?
Why do you think I'm broke? Huh?

(If there's a new way)
(I'll be the first in line)
(But it better work this time)

What do you mean: I hurt your feelings?
I didn't know you had any feelings
What do you mean: I ain't kind?
Just not your kind

What do you mean: I couldn't be the President
Of the United States of America?
Tell me something, it's still we
The fucking people, right?

(If there's a new way)
(I'll be the first in line)
(But it better work this time)

Can you put a price on peace?

Peace
Peace sells
Peace
Peace sells

(Peace sells, but who's buying?)
(Peace sells, but who's buying?)
(Peace sells, but who's buying?)
(Peace sells, but who's buying?)

One more time, come on

(Peace sells, but who's buying?)
(Peace sells, but who's buying?)
(Peace sells, but who's buying?)
(Peace sells, but who's buying?)

Peace sells, but who's buying?
Peace sells, but who's buying?
Peace sells, but who's buying?
Peace sells, but who's buying? No!

No, no, no, no!
Peace sells
Peace sells
