My Sweetie and I
saw this man in person,
he sang of San Francisco Peace made us cry
now echoes from Heaven!
Rainbow Suite
Peace And Love,
how one another we should greet
make proud above!
This Veterans Day
so their sacrifice not in vain,
the smore Peace the better i say
if only All God's Children from hate would refrain!
Now the real question
on the tip of every decent man's tongue,
will killing we're forced to do be forgiven
or punished ones our heroes be among?
They're only fighting for our freedom
but then sometimes it's best left alone,
to those that live by the devil's gun
let them fight amongst themselves in their own home!
But when it comes to our people
how can it be wrong,
to protect the innocent soul
when threats come along?
We're often forced to go abroad
and till someone's death fight,
Is It His Law Under God
or our feeling we have the right?
I'm not saying it's wrong to defend
our own against the guilty when there's a need,
but innocent we should not send
let them fight their own battles....
and shed their own blood not ours for their bad deed!

From Dec.2004 Scott performs a song that was written by John Phillips(Mamas & Papas)
just before JP's death in 2001.
We've been asking questions of everyone we meet
People that we've known for years neighbors down the street
How did it happen how were we played for fools?
Gamblin' with our children's lives in a game that knows no rules
We need an answer a reason why
The rulers wage the wars but our children fight and die!
Mothers and fathers you're charged with your children's lives
It's up to you to cull between the truth and all the lies
Is there a parent livin' on this earth
Who doesn't realize what their children's dreams are worth?
We need an answer a reason why
The rulers wage the wars but our children fight and die!
Did you ever think about the pain in the night
Of the mother whose child was killed in the bloody fight
Or the young veteran who comes home but not the same
Did you ever wonder how it feels to have that pain?
Presidents and dictators,tyrants and the shahs
Order you to go to war according to their personal laws
But don't blame your mothers and your fathers or your feelings inside
Cause you're all the victims of generations of lies!
When it comes right down to it it's up to you
The future of the world depends on what you do!
