Young Abdel Madi Shabneh was only eighteen years old
He was the youngest of nine children
He'd never spent a night away from home
And his mother held his photograph up in the New York Times
You see the killing has intensified along the road to peace
He was a tall thin boy with a wispy moustache
Disguised as an Orthodox Jew
On a crowded bus in Jerusalem, some had survived World War II
And the thunderous explosion blew out windows 200 yards away
More retribution and seventeen dead along the road to peace
Now at King George Avenue and Jaffa Road
Passengers boarded bus 14A
In the aisle next to the driver, Abdel Madi Shabneh
The last thing that he said on Earth was 'God is great and God is good'
And he blew them all to kingdom come upon the road to peace
Now in response to this, another kiss of death was visited upon
Yashir Tehah, Israel says is an Hamas Senior militant
Israel sent four choppers in, flames engulfed his white Opel
And it killed his wife and his three-year-old child
Leaving only blackened skeletons
They found his toddler's bottle and a pair of small shoes
And they waved them in front of the cameras
But Israel said they did not know that his wife and child were in the car
There are roadblocks everywhere and only suffering on TV
Neither side will ever give up their smallest right along the road to peace
