a critical look at Canadas peacekeeping missions in Afghanistan, Haiti, Somalia, and here at home with first Nations people

Keepin the Peace

Chorus:
Keepin the peace, keepin the peace
Were keepin, the peace
Keepin the peace, we got you down on your knees
By keepin the peace

Its operation peacemaker, its not a war
Cant you see its peace theyre fighting and theyre killing for
Well stay there to the end
Its the white mans burden
Keepin the peace

Chorus:

Its our responsibility, we guarantee,
Well protect the unelected from democracy
So say no more, my friend
It will not end, until we save them from themselves,
By keepin the peace

Chorus:

And if you want to know what it means
Just ask the Somalians and the first Nations,
The Afghans and the Haitians
And the Japanese in the 1940s
About keepin the peace

I say you got to ask Somalians and the first Nations,
The Afghans and the Haitians
And the Muslim men left to rot in prison
About keepin the peace

Chorus:

And now were at it again
Were killing in the name of peace all over again
Its never going to end
Until we get a taste of what were offering
Close our eyes and just keep on talking
All the while pretending, were keeping the peace
