Chorus:
The glaciers will melt - the Jordan will fill.
Oh, how they'll all make peace! Shalom aleihem; wa alaikum salaam.
The glaciers will melt - the Jordan will fill.
They'll all make peace, oh! Shalom aleihem; wa alaikum salaam.
Camouflage patterns shaped from the screen's pixels
Machine-gun-fire stutter, the sound engineer silencing the mixer
Once more the voice behind the screen will tell us incredible truths about our enemies
Reading the carefully crafted words from pieces of paper in his cold voice
None of your devices will open uncomfortable links
As the eyes of a soldier hurrying home to his mother in a zinc casket never open
With a grin the director of the whole bloody circus counts his ticket stubs
But the glaciers will melt, the glaciers will melt!
Chorus:
The glaciers will melt - the Jordan will fill.
Oh, how they'll all make peace! Shalom aleihem; wa alaikum salaam.
The glaciers will melt - the Jordan will fill.
They'll all make peace, oh! Shalom aleihem; wa alaikum salaam.

None of your devices will open uncomfortable links
As the eyes of a soldier hurrying home to his mother in a zinc casket never open
With a grin the director of the whole bloody circus counts his ticket stubs
But the glaciers will melt, the glaciers will melt!
The naked king promises all his subjects warm winter clothes
Their mouths open, they clap, entranced by his fiery speeches
Their lips are chapped from the cold, their bare shoulders shake in the wind; but.
The gift of being able to convince is a power, and so for the third year running they wait for what is promised
He blames the enemy for the chattering teeth and the cracks on the windows
As though it is the enemy's fault the peregrine flocks fail to return
And the longer he speakes, the stronger and fiercer the cold winds press
But the glaciers will melt, the glaciers will melt!
Chorus:
The glaciers will melt - the Jordan will fill.
Oh, how they'll all make peace! Shalom aleihem; wa alaikum salaam.
The glaciers will melt - the Jordan will fill.
They'll all make peace, oh! Shalom aleihem. Shalom aleihem. Shalom aleihem. Wa alaikum salaam. Wa alaikum salaam. Wa alaikum salaam.
