PEEL THE CHARADE Words & Music by Paula Boggs © 2008 Verse 1 Sara Jane Moore just got out on parole. Benazir Bhutto is dead. Pluto took a hit and is no longer a planet. What can Charon do but see red? Buddha tried his best in the Year of the Pig. Monks in Burma cry out for peace. No one really ever truly captures the flag. No one can avoid the caprice. Chorus I don’t have answers I can’t pretend We need each other just to mend… Reset how the game is played… Peel the charade Verse 2 I once read Gandhi. I once read King. Who is our Plato? Who will be the Lord of our Ring? With so much bloodshed… With so much pain… Our earth needs cleansing. Each of us must wash out the stain. Chorus (repeat once) End of Song Heal us, heal us, heal us, heal us.
