The Sound Of War |
Whoa, oh, oh |
The sounds, the sounds of war |
It ain’t pretty, oh |
I hear the sound of war |
Echoing over yonder |
It make I-man stop and wonder |
I heard the song of bomb |
That sound like thunder |
The flashing like that looks like lighting |
The rolling of the tanks across the plains |
And the children so confused |
And the elders not amused |
Is Babylon unleashing all its might |
Destroying everything in sight |
I can feel the agony of the people |
Filled with fear, destruction everywhere |
When two governments disagree, the people dies |
No one listens to their cries |
Whenever theirs war, the children perish |
Losing everything they ever cherish |
They send their sons and daughters to die on the battlefield |
All in the name of freedom, all in the name of democracy |
Those that make it back, they show no mercy |
Living in the streets like rats |
Nowhere to rest their backs |
I hear the sound of war |
Echoing over yonder |
Said I hear the sound of war |
Echoing over yonder |
I can feel the agony of the people |
Filled with fear, destruction everywhere |
Whoa, oh the sound of war |
It ain’t pretty |
I said the sound of war |
It ain’t pretty |
It ain’t pretty |
Whenever there is war, the children perish |
Losing everything they ever cherish |
We send our sons and daughters to die on the battlefield |
All in the name of freedom, all in the name of democracy |
And those that make it back, they show no mercy |
Living in the streets like rats |
Nowhere to rest their backs |
