"World Peace" Lyrics:
All you hippies better start to face reality
All your far fetched dreams of anarchy
Better start to see things the way they are
Cause the way things
Are going they won't be goin far
World peace can't be done
It just can't exist
World peace can't be done
Anarchy’s a mess
Things are getting hectic
It's all gonna end
You don't know what's waitin up around the bend
Open your eyes, perhaps you'll realize
If AIDS don't get ya then the warheads will
All you hippies better start to face reality
All your far fetched dreams of anarchy
Better start to see things the way they are
The way things
Are going they won't be goin far
World peace can't be done
It just can't exist
World peace can't be done
Anarchy is a mess
Things are getting hectic
It's all gonna end
You don't know what's waiting up around the bend
Open your eyes, perhaps you'll realize
If AIDS don't get ya then the warheads will
World peace can't be done
World peace
It just can't exist
World peace
World peace can't be done
World peace
Anarchy's a mess
World peace
World peace can't be done
World peace
It just can't
World peace
It just can’t exist
World peace
World peace
World peace

WHY WAS AGE OF QUARREL RE-RECORDED
It all started with the making of the movie “Wired for chaos”
But ultimately there where several reasons….
Because none of the people who played on the original record ever got paid, and none of us ever received an accounting for sales of the album.
I could never get the original line-up to re-record it. For years, I tried to get everybody to the table, to get on stage together, and, up until recently, I was trying to get the rights to Age of Quarrel and Best Wishes back using the Copyright Reversion Act. But I could not get anyone to come together to get their own music back.
Now that window is closed.
We had to re-record some of the songs fromAge of Quarrel for the feature documentary soundtrack to Harley Flanagan: Wired for Chaos (Lightyear Entertainment, RexPix Media, copyright 2025) because they could not license the originals.
During that process, I decided to re-record the rest of the record.
To pay tribute to this album, I have gathered some of my friends, current members, and members of other bands to re-record these songs that have meant so much to so many people, me included.
Now, 40 years after Age of Quarrel was released, everyone who wrote the songs will get paid by ASCAP and BMI accordingly, and the rest of the proceeds will go to charity.
I'm doing my best to make it right.
These songs belong to the fans.
I am washing my hands of this and trying to clean the bad karma off this record.
Love wins.
My quarrel is over.
