| I don’t wanna be no soldier — I don’t wanna shoot no gun
|
| I don’t wanna drop no bomb — I don’t wanna hurt no one
|
| I don’t wanna fight no battles — I don’t wanna settle no score
|
| I don’t even understand — What we’re fightin' for
|
| No it ain’t my war
|
| That’s the way of the world — That’s what they tell me
|
| That’s the way of the world — They can’t sell me
|
| That’s the way of the world — I can’t explain it
|
| That’s the way of the world — But we can change it
|
| We’re burnin up the ozone layer — We’re walkin on a real thin wire
|
| Stirrin' up a hurricane — Playin' with the devil’s fire
|
| Got a lot of dirty water — Got a lot of dirty air
|
| Got skeletons in the closet — But nobody looks in there
|
| 'cause they’re all scared
|
| That’s the way of the world — That’s what they tell me
|
| That’s the way of the world — They can’t sell me
|
| That’s the way of the world — I can’t explain it
|
| That’s the way of the world — But we can change it
|
| I just wanna live in peace now — With my guitar and my girl
|
| Raise a little family — That’s way it’s supposed to be
|
| That’s the way of the world — Yeah
|
| That’s the way of the world
|
| That’s the way of the world
|
| That’s the way of the world — That’s what they tell me
|
| That’s the way of the world — They can’t sell me
|
| That’s the way of the world — I can’t explain it
|
| That’s the way of the world — But we can change it
|
| That’s the way of the world
|
| That’s the way of the world |
