War Of The Worlds
Unknown Date: A multi- part, anti- war song inspired by Green Day's Jesus Of Suburbia and Holiday. I wrote this after a trip to the Imperial War Museum in London; this is the final version.
Pt. 1: There's Still A War
(War is over, if you want it, war is over now)
Soldiers fighting out in the desert
Say, "I really really wanna go home"
For now they have to stay where they are
'Cause there's still a war to be won
And it won't stop til everything's gone
It don't matter who, but it has to be won
And world wars are happening as we speak
I can feel the ground tremblin' under my feet
It's just a world that's ravaged by war
Nobody's safe in a war of the worlds
There's nothing left worth fighting for
So what the HELL are people dying for?
Poverty here and terrorism there
DISADVANTAGED FAMILIES everywhere
Homeless and widows just because of war
So what the hell do we fight for?
Oh go on, act like you don't see it
But I know that you can feel it
Everyone's differences still remain
It seems we'll never be the same
And you know there's a war
Still happening somewhere
And no- one speaks the truth
So it looks like no- one cares
There's nothing left worth fighting for
So what the HELL are people dying for?
Poverty here and terrorism there
DISADVANTAGED FAMILIES everywhere
Homeless and widows just because of war
So what the hell do we fight for?
War is a good- for- nothing
Son of a bitch that made it
Gave birth to a monster
Started killing the human race
Pt. 2: God Save Our Souls
God save our souls now,
SEND US BACK HOME NOW,
When will the world be peaceful again?
Oh in you we do trust
But survive we must
So for now we'll fight in your name.
"God save us now" is what we're screaming out
And when the time is right, we will end this fight
Soldiers cry out as they get shot back down
Glorious dead just waiting for the light
God save our souls now,
SEND US BACK HOME NOW,
When will the world be peaceful again?
Oh in you we do trust
But survive we must
So for now we'll fight in your name
We'll all be safe and sound
When the war's done and gone
But for now we'll fight
'Cause there's a war to be won
God save our souls now,
SEND US BACK HOME NOW,
When will the world be peaceful again?
God save our souls now
Right as the bombs howl
All I want is for this war to end.
Pt. 3: Ignorance and Hate
Children walking down the street
Begging for something to eat
It's what you find when ignorance and hate meet
When ignorance and hate meet
Don't call Hitler Fuhrer
'Cause he'll ruin your life
And all that Mussolini brought
Was trouble, hurt and strife
Stay away from Stalin now
Keep away from them all
'Cause they'll bring you
IGNORANCE and HATE
And it will be too late
'Cause you'll be captured by
Ignorance and hate
And the whole world will end up crying
All we can do is shout out why
When the war is coming undone
And there's too many wars to be won
Pt. 4: War is Over
Like John Lennon sang aloud
Like those people in the crowd
Let's shout out and put our hands up now
War is gonna be over, war is gonna be over
You know it has to end soon
Rulers of the world, now listen
Your problems will all stop
And this war will be over
But only if you want it to
(instrumental guitary bit)
Well we can settle our differences
But only if we try
And all the soldiers and civillians
They won't have to die, no
THEY WON'T HAVE TO DIE
Like John Lennon sang aloud
Like the people in this crowd
Let's shout out and put our hands up now
War is gonna be over, WAR IS GONNA BE OVER
Nothing left worth fighting for
So tell me what do people die for
Soldiers they are praying, and
Soldiers they are saying
"When the war is over
We can all go home,"
We'll be able to finally return
Make peace and we'll go home
Like John Lennon sang aloud
Like the people in this crowd
Let's shout out and put our hands up now
War is gonna be over, WAR IS GONNA BE OVER
Like John Lennon sang aloud
Like the people in this crowd
Let's shout out and put our hands up now
War is gonna be over, WAR IS GONNA BE OVER
(War is over, if you want it, war is over now) x2
(War is over, if you want it)
War is over now
