Masters Of War Lyrics

Come you masters of war

    Bob Dylan wasn't afraid to speak his mind about what war does to people. Throughout history there had been many ''Masters Of War'' that we have never heard of or seen behind the veil that pull the strings and use some appointed leaders as ''Their Puppets'' for them to use the people to start wars in and with each other's countries. The 4 main Puppets used by the ''Masters Of War'' to use the global population to fight each other during WW2 and after where Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin as war mongers that worked for the ''Masters Of War'', especially Winston Churchill that did not want to give Adolf Hitler a reason to stop the war early, because Winston Churchill despised in jealousy the peaceful and the happy culture of the people of Germany and other cultures of Europe even before the Nazis became in power that he wanted to destabilize and destroy, but at the end they both got screwd by Joseph Stalin that became a bigger monster then them all for the ''Masters Of War'' that keeps giving fuel to todays newest Puppets that never stopped yet to figure out their next move.

    No ambiguity here. Those who profit from war have blood on their hands.
