lyrics

Peace is at a premium, wings are hard to find
There’s a clearance on kindness, everybody’s in the checkout line
Love is in season, but you can’t buy it on line
Peace is at a premium, and wings are hard to find

Love is in season, sold everywhere
Right next to the hammers and the other hardware
Courage is in the cooler, no need to be scared
You can have a heapin’ helpin’ of heavenly hope, but love you gotta share

Cho: I go down to the market, something we all gotta do
I even shop ahead of time for values that are true
Sometimes I forget my list of things I got to do
you might even see me there, and I hope that I see you

Compassion’s on call, that’s down isle six
Harmony’s in my handcart right next to the kix
This row here has remedies if you really need a fix
But wings are hard to come by, so please, no tricks
