(1980-12-08 is one of those "forever remember where I was when I heard the news" days.)
From the Molly Hatchet song, "Fall Of The Peacemakers":
A voice from the past cried "Give peace a chance"
He paid our price now he's free at last
Imagine, we called him a dreamer!
How many times must good men die?
How many tears will the children cry?
'Til they suffer no more sadness
Stop the madness,
Oh, stop the madness.
[On a more cheerful note, happy Chanukah to everyone who'll be lighting the first candle this evening!]
