Tonight, I walked into the bedroom
And you were visibly upset, whoo!
Telling me I made a bad move
But I didn't do nothing

And you start screaming, wake the neighbors
Now everybody's out for blood
I didn't want no confrontation
Because of you, that's what I've got

Well, you gotta chill out
'Cause baby, I don't wanna fight with you
And every battle we fought just made us look like fools

No, you can't a have World War III
If there's only one fight fighting
And you know, whoa-oh
That there's lessons left to learn
Every time you attack
It doesn't drive me to fight you back
And then, I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be World War III

World War III
Let me tell 'em

Now you're rounding up your army
Turning all your troops on me
And telling lies just to feel happy
But I won't retaliate, no

No, you can't a have World War III
If there's only one side fighting
And you know, whoa-oh
That there's lessons left to learn
Every time you attack
It doesn't drive me to fight you back
And I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be World War III
Well, you gotta chill out
'Cause baby, I don't wanna fight with you
And every battle we fought just made us look like fools

No, you can't a have World War III
If there's only one side fighting
And you know, whoa-oh
That there's nothing left to learn
Every time you attack
It doesn't drive me to fight you back
And I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be World War III
Not gonna be World War III
Oh-oh, oh-oh

Every time you attack
It doesn't drive me to fight you back
And I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be World War III
World War III
World War III
