You ain't no hero when you kill a child and you cannot cry
You ain't no hero when you shoot a liner from the sky
You ain't no hero when you're preaching fear and hate
And you shy away from battles with the soldiers of our state

And you left your land of sunshine,
You say against your will.
Then they washed your mind with evil
They taught it how to kill

Ah but they forgot tell you
'Bout the ever watching eye
Of the maker of the universe
And His Kingdom in the sky

You ain't no hero when you kill a child and you cannot cry.
You ain't no hero when you shoot a liner from the sky.
You ain't no hero when you're preaching fear and hate
And you shy away from battles with the soldiers of our state.

And you came back to your birthland
With your so called cause
And you killed the meek and helpless
The servants of the Lord

Then you crawled off in the darkness
To the devil's hiding place
Now you serve no creed or country
Let alone the human race

You ain't no hero when you kill a child and you cannot cry
You ain't no hero when you shoot a liner from the sky
You ain't no hero when you're preaching fear and hate
And you shy away from battles with the soldiers of our state
Yes, you shy away from battles with the soldiers of our state
