Miriam Makeba - Four Letter Words Lyrics

Wars, kill, guns, hate
Hurt, harm, dead
Ball, fire, burn
Are four-letter words

Beat, take, hide, stay
Raid, flee, bled
Fear, weep, maim
Are four-letter words

Four-letter words
Dirty words
When they mean what they say

For better words
What we need is a far better way

Love, give, fair, just
Feel, help, true
Hope, save and care
Are four-letter words too

Love, give, fair, just
Heal, help, true
Hope, save and care
Are four-letter words too
