Everybody |
|
Don't want no war, |
|
'Cos we're too young to die, |
|
So many people, |
|
All around the world, |
|
Seen their brothers fry. |
|
What's the motive? |
|
In your madness. |
|
You've made my people cry. |
|
So politicians this time |
|
Keep your distance. |
|
'Cos we're too young to die. |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
What's the answer? |
|
To our problems. |
|
I think we've gone too high, |
|
Little children, |
|
Never said a word now, |
|
But still they have to die. |
|
It won't be long. |
|
Dancing like we do now, |
|
To put this sad world right. |
|
So don't you worry, |
|
Suffer no more, |
|
'Cos we're too young to die. |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
You know we're too young to die, |
|
All gone when they drop the bomb. |
|
Can the politicians reassure? |
|
'Cos here I am presuming that |
|
Nobody wants a war |
|
There's so many people praying |
|
Just to find out if they're staying. |
|
But lately stately governments |
|
And disillusioned leaders, |
|
So full of empty promises |
|
But rarely do they feed us. |
|
Put our backs against the wall, |
|
Or don't we count at all? |
|
Can you decide, |
|
Are you mesmerised. |
|
Do you know which side you're standing? |
|
Cos when it falls gonna take us all. |
|
Gotta know what we're demanding, |
|
I never lie, |
|
Can't your hear the cry, |
|
Coming from on high, |
|
WE'RE TOO YOUNG TO DIE. |
