Wheel of Fortune

The wheel of fortune smoothly spun Before man’s damage had been done But first it slowed and then it ceased When we let loose the snarling beast When truth was lost amongst the lies And midnight bombers flew the skies When boys were sent to Vietnam We’d slain the brotherhood of man When justice wore a ball and chain The world was soaked by nuclear rain When love made way for bitter hate We sat and wept at heaven’s gate When all our dreams curled up and died The Devil laughed and Angels cried When men of peace marched off to war The wheel of fortune turned no more
