Eve of Destruction |
The eastern world it is explodin', |
Violence flarin', bullets loadin', |
You’re old enough to kill but not for votin', |
You don’t believe in war, what’s that gun you’re totin', |
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin', |
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend, |
Ah, you don’t believe we’re on the eve of destruction. |
Don’t you understand, what I’m trying to say? |
Can’t you feel the fears that 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, |
And you tell me over and over and over again my friend, |
Ah, you don’t believe we’re on the eve of destruction. |
Yeah, my blood’s so mad, feels like coagulatin', |
I’m sittin' here, just contemplatin', |
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 disintegratin', |
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin', |
And you tell me over and over and over again my friend, |
Ah, 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! |
Ah, you may leave here, for four days in space, |
But when your return, it’s the same old place, |
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace, |
You can bury your dead, but don’t leave a trace, |
Hate your next-door-neighbour, but don’t forget to say grace, |
And you tell me over and 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. |
