World At War


It all started with a people, beaten and abused,

Those people had a name, we called them the Jews,

Hitler hated them and blamed them for everything,

So he made them up camps threw away the key.

 

That was spark, he lit the fuse,

He left the people black and blue,

They worked everyday, until they die,

Think of the sadness, think of this crime.

 

America didn't want to get into a conflict,

They just sat back and ignored it,

Then they had a harbor got attacked,

After that they locked up the American Japs,

 

Now here we are, a world at war,

Waged by the rich, but fought by the poor,

Eventually the Axis just split,

Hitler had had enough of it.

 

Then only the Japs remained,

Against the Allies who had manned the planes,

Total War was the strategy,

When America bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
