If you watch the news on t.v.

It's enough to make you sick.

Think we need a new solution

Think we better find it quick

'cause we're in acceleration

And there ain't much time to think

Trigger fingers are gettin' itchy now

Ohthey've got us on the brink.



I refuse to hate the russians

And I ain't scared of the chinese

'cause they're people just like we are

And they got their families

They don't want their young men dying

For a piece of foreign ground

And they're tired of taking orders

And being pushed around

Being pushed around



But it's gonna happen soon

From here to every distant shore

When people everywhere refuse

To take it anymore



This world is shrinking day by day

The boundaries are obsolete

Still every man breaks his back to pay

And make some arsenal complete

How can we build more weapons

Knowing what we'll use them for? 

How can family men assemble

The machinery of war? 

You gotta wonder.
