Oh, take a terrorist to lunch,
It's the right thing to do.
They're really not such a bad bunch,
Just need a change of view.

Discuss the pleasure of a job,
The pride of getting paid.
Show that they needn't kill or rob,
In peace future is laid.

Well, befriend a killer today,
Take one home to meet mom!
Yes, she'll know the right thing to say,
Just tell her, "don't say 'bomb'"!

So, help change a radical life,
It’s the enlightened way.
Dissuade them from using a knife.
Hold your head high today.

Yes, kindness soothes the angry brain,
And guides darkness to light.
If you gently counsel and train,
No one will want to fight.

Oh, take a terrorist to lunch,
You’ll have a friend today.
But, careful while you slurp and munch,
Know how to run away.
