No one will win the war, see families only die

And birds won't soar the sky and there'll be no sun to shine

No country wins a war, the grass won't grow the same

The moon won't shine at night and there's a losing fight

Nobody wins a war



Now what would you do, what would you say

If you heard a bomb was headed your way?

Where would you go, what would you bring

If you heard a bomb was headed your way?



Now what would you do, what would you say

If you heard a rocket was headed your way?

Where would you go, what would you bring?



No soldier wins a war, see soldiers only die

And mamas only cry just for a conscious flag to fly

That's why nobody wins a war, no war is worth your life

See that's a priceless pride, no war is worth your blood

Nobody wins a war



Now what would you do, what would you say

If you heard a bomb was headed your way?

Where would you go, what would you bring

If you heard a bomb was headed your way?



Now what would you do, what would you say

If you heard a rocket was headed your way?

Where would you go, what would you bring

Tell me who would you pray to?



Now what would you do, what would you say

If you heard a bomb was headed your way?

Where would you go, what would you bring

If you heard a bomb was headed your way?



Now what would you do, what would you say

If you heard a rocket was headed your way?

Where would you go, what would you bring?

No one wins a war



No one wins a war, no one wins

No one wins a war

No one wins a war, no one wins

No one wins a war



No one wins a war, no one wins

No one wins a war

No one wins a war, no one wins

No one wins a war



Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war



Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war



Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war

Nobody wins a war, nobody wins a war



Nobody wins a war

We, the people speak, speak

We want to be free of this sick bureaucracy

No more death tolls with our morning coffee

Oh, government, you have lost your feeling for life



It is war that you reap

But the loss is too great and the pain is too deep

The scars do not heal

Your system is thoughtless and your vision is weak



Your actions are hurtful

You never find what you seek

You make the sky a storm

You destroy the earth, make possibilities bleak



Your lies are your destruction, your justice stinks

Your pride is maniacal, you are the bearer of grief

Your win is shallow, your truth is oblique

Your patriotism is garbage, it rots and it reeks



Of death in the wind, the foul stench of men

Basking in their cruelty, rejoicing in their sin

You give up and give over so easily to the darker side

Because of your pride, you risk all of humanity



You send my children to murder human beings

Families they do not yet know, people they have never seen

You send my children to war

Without exasperating dialogue to get to the meat

An equal understanding, as if there isn't even a possibility for peace



But there is always a possibility for peace

As un-perfect as we are, we should in all ways reach

Deep, deep down in our beings

Oh, this wicked, wicked system of things



As our grandmothers say

Will soon be no more, will soon be no more

Because nobody, no one ever wins a war
