[Refugee All Stars]
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

[Steven Tyler]
Everybody's talking about
Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism, Ragism, Tagism
This-ism, that-ism, that is it! Oh no!

[Refugee All Stars]
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

[Steven Tyler]
Yeah, come on!
Everybody talking about ministers
Sinisters, banisters, canisters
Bishops and fishops and rabbis and Popeyes
And bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye!

[Refugee All Stars]
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

[Steven Tyler]
Let me tell you now
Everybody talking about
Revolution, evolution
Masturbation, flagellation
Regulations, integrations
Meditation, United Nations
Congratulations!

[Refugee All Stars]
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

[Black Nature of Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars (rapping)]
Fight for peace, yes, peace that we need
Too many die, too much mouth to feed
Total peace for the good of the kids
Why punish them for what they never did?
Forget the past now, learn to forgive
Everything on earth has his own right to live
Whether you are black man or whether you are white
Stop this and let us unite

[Refugee All Stars]
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance...

Aerosmith

Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as “The Bad Boys from Boston” and “America’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.” Formed in 1970, its founding members are Steven Tyler (vocals, keyboards, harmonica), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), Joe Perry (guitar, vocals) and Brad Whitford (guitar).

The band released their eponymous debut studio album in 1973 featuring the single “Dream On,” which remains one of their most popular songs. Their next four albums made them rock stars across the US and Canada, spawning the hits “Sweet Emotion”, “Last Child”, “Walk This Way”, “Back In The Saddle”, “Draw The Line”, and a cover of “Come Together” for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Soundtrack.

Before the release of their fifth album Draw The Line, the band’s substance abuse began to destroy them. Perry quit after a backstage fight with Tyler in 1979, and Whitfield left two years later. Despite moderate sales, the band’s fifth and sixth albums were considered flops when compared to the band’s past accomplishments. When Perry and Whitfield returned in 1984, their eighth album Done With Mirrors was also deemed unsuccessful despite strong reviews. Doug Herzog (MTV, VH1)
