Intro : (x4) The Eastern world,  it is explodin' Violence flarin',  bullets loadin' You're old enough to kill,  but not for votin' You don't believe in war,  but what's that gun you're totin' And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin' But you tell me Over and over and over again, my friend Ah, you don't believe We're on the eve of destruction.                 Don't you understand what I'm trying to say ? Can't you feel the fears I'm feelin'today ? If the button is pushed, there's no runnin'away There'll be no one to save, with the world in a grave Take a look around you, boy It's bound to scare you, boy. Refrain Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin' I'm sittin'here just contemplatin' You can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation. Handful of senators don't pass legislation And marches alone can't bring integration When human respect is disintegratin' This whole crazy world is just too frustratin' Refrain Think of all the hate there is in Red China Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama You may leave here for 4 days in space But when you return, it's the same old place The poundin'of the drum, the pride and disgrace You can't bury your dead, but don't leave a trace Hate your next-door neighbour, but don't forget to say prayers. Refrain
