Masters Of War by Bob Dylan

Come, you (1)______________ of war
You that build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that (2)________ (3)____________ desks
I just-a (4)________ you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run (5)______________ when the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see (6)______________ your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water that (7)________ down my drain

You fasten all the triggers
For the (8)____________ to fire
Then you set back and watch
While the death (9)__________ gets higher
You hide in your mansion
While young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies and is buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to (10)__________ children
Into the world
For threatenin' my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood that (11)________ in your veins

How (12)________ do I know
A-to talk out of turn?
You (13)__________ say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one (14)__________ I know
Though I'm younger (15)________ you
That (16)________ (17)__________ (18)__________ never (19)______________ (20)________ you do

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness?
Do you think (21)________ it could?
An' I think you (22)________ find
When your death takes its toll
All the (23)__________ you made will never buy back your soul

An' I hope that you die
And your (24)__________ will come soon
I'll (25)____________ your casket
On a pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your (26)__________ bed
And I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure (27)________ you're dead
