Michele de Nostradame



Sitting in a room Lit by candlelight A forecaster of doom Works into the night Staring in a bowl Created just for scrying He looks into a hole And sees a people dying The Frenchman makes a record Of everything he sees Most of it is discord Chaos and disease Hitler he had prophesized The fall of Russia too He saw an Empire's demise At a place called Waterloo Soon his final tale Might come to our despair A war which will entail Destruction everywhere According to the quatrains The man in the blue hat Will make sure that his terror reigns And it could be Arafat For one score and seven years The bloody war will last Realizing all men's fears When the final die is cast The man who saw our present day Michele de Nostradame Said it can be kept away Without a single bomb Destiny is ours to make Is what the prophet said All we have to do is wake Before we lose our head If only we could realize What we all are doing If we opened up our eyes We'd see is us we're screwing Now, there is a way To avert the conflagration One thing I can say To every single nation The land upon which you sit Is for everybody's use So I can't figure why is it This priviledge you abuse Why is it you tell your child He must learn to share
