Brother, did you weep? lyrics

Disc of sun in the belching smoke

Blazing huts where children choke

Burning flesh and blackened blood

Charred and blistered like smould'ring wood

Oh brother, oh brother did you weep?

Oh brother, oh brother can you sleep?

Wall-eyed moon in the wounded night

Touching poisoned fields with blight

Showing a ditch where a died girls lies

Courted by ants and hungry flies

Oh brother, oh brother did you weep?

Oh brother, oh brother can you sleep?

Scream of pain on the morning breeze

Thunder of bombs in the grove of trees

Hymn of rubble and powdered stone

Anguished flesh and splintered bone

Oh brother, oh brother did yoou weep?

Oh brother, oh brother can you sleep?

Programmed war, efficiency team

Punch cards fed to thinking machines:

Computer death and the Murder Plan

Total destruction of Vietnam

Oh brother, oh brother did you weep?

Oh brother, oh brother can you sleep?
