The Pogues

The Pogues - Eve Of Destruction songtekst

Je score:

The eastern world, it is exploding
Violence flaring, bullets loading
You're old to kill, not for voting
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're toting
And even the Jordan River has bodies floating

Now you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

Don't you understand what I'm trying to say
Don't you feel the fears I'm feeling today?
If the button is pushed, there's no running away
There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave
Take a look around you, boy, it's bound to scare you, boy

You tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe
It's on the eve of destruction

My blood's so mad feels like coagulating
I'm sitting here just contemplating
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
Handful of senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegrating
This whole crazy world is just too frustrating

Now you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
You may leave here for 4 days in space
When you return, it's the same old place
The pounding of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your crimes, but don't leave a trace
Next-door neighbor, but don't forget to say grace

Yes and tell me 
Over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction
You don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction
