We all ought to know what is wrong from what's right <br />But show me what's worth fighting for and for it I will fight <br />But if we have to kill or be killed in doing so that's another thing <br />Though the praises of war heroes the majority do like to sing <br />With passive resistance Gandhi did succeed <br />Now here was a person who was born to lead <br />For India and it's people great thing he done <br />For his people without firing a shot the right to self determination was won <br />I will speak out on behalf of the life of a tree <br />That has lived in the Townpark for a century <br />That is deemed to be dangerous and ordered to be cut down <br />By the corporate leaders who run the big town <br />Show me something worth fighting for and I'll fight for it but not with fist, weapon or gun <br />For I'd like to enjoy some more time in the sun.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/show-me-something-worth-fighting-for/
