What we've got here is failure |
To communicate |
Some men you just can't reach |
So, you get what we had here |
Last week |
Which is the way he wants it! |
Well, he gets it |
I don't like it any more |
Than you men |
Look at your young men fighting |
Look at your women crying |
Look at your young men dying |
The way they've always done before |
Bridge: |
Look at the hate we're breeding |
Look at the fear we're feeding |
Look at the lives we're leading |
The way we've always done before |
Bridge: |
My hands are tied |
The billions shift from |
Side to side |
And the wars go on |
With brainwashed pride |
For the love of God |
And our human rights |
And all these things |
Are swept aside |
By bloody hands time can't deny |
And are washed away |
By your genocide |
And history hides the lies |
Of our civil wars |
Bridge: |
D'you wear a black armband |
When they shot the man |
Who said |
"Peace could last forever" |
And in my first memories |
They shot Kennedy |
I went numb when I learned to see |
So I never fell for Vietnam |
We got the wall of D.C. |
To remind us all |
That you can't trust freedom |
When it's not in your hands |
When everybody's fightin' |
For their promised land and |
I don't need your civil war |
It feeds the rich while it |
Buries the poor |
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers |
In a human grocery store |
Ain't that fresh |
I don't need your civil war |
No no no no no no |
Solo: |
Look at the shoes your filling |
Look at the blood we're spilling |
Look at the world we're killing |
The way we've always done before |
Look in the doubt we've wallowed |
Look at the leaders we've followed |
Look at the lies we've swallowed |
And I don't want to hear no more |
Bridge: |
My hands are tied |
For all I've seen |
Has changed my mind |
But still the wars go on |
As the years go by |
With no love of God or human rights |
'Cause all these dreams are |
Swept aside |
By bloody hands of the hypnotized |
Who carry the cross of homicide |
And history bears the scars |
Of our civil wars |
Solo: |
We practice selective annihilation |
Of mayors and government officials |
For example to create a vacuum |
Then we fill that vacuum |
As popular war advances |
Peace is closer |
I don't need your civil war |
It feeds the rich while it |
Buries the poor |
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers |
In a human grocery store |
Ain't that fresh |
I don't need your civil war |
No no no no no no no no no no |
And I don't need your civil war |
I don't need |
Your civil war |
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers |
In a human grocery store |
Ain't that fresh |
I don't need your civil war |
No no no no no no no no no no |
I don't need one more war |
Solo: |
Bridge: |
x2 |
Ohhhhhh I don't need |
One more war no |
