Lyrics

War

[Intro]

War

[Verse 1]

Sometimes I want to borrow

Watching violence, after fights

Can she go to war tomorrow

To guarantee his rights

[Refrain]

War (War), we don't need your war

War (War), we don't need your war

War

War

[Verse 2]

You must be mad

That you sent us to war

I said if you sit down

We don't need your war

[Refrain]

War (War), we don't need your war

War (War), we don't need your war

War

War

[Verse 3]

War, war, war

Down the west in the crowd

With those of you who'll go

We're looking for this man

Something to give us a fall

Ronald Reagan is a cunt

He's sure to gas [count?]

He's going to start a nucleur war

No one can survive

[Refrain]

War (War), we don't need your war

War (War), we don't need your war

War

[Outro]

We don't need your war

We don't need your war (War)

We don't need your war (War)

War (War)

War

(War)
