D.o.a. - Eve Of Destruction lyrics

The eastern world, it is exploding Violence flaring and bullets loading You're old enough to k** but not for voting And the Jordan river has bodies floating But you tell me over and over and over again, my friend 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 fear that I'm a-feeling today? If the bu*ton is pushed, there's no running 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 But you tell me over and over and over again, my friend You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction My blood's so mad, it feels like coagulating I'm sitting here, just contemplating You can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation And a handful of Senators can't pa** legislation And marches alone can't bring integration When human respect is disintegrating And this whole crazy world is just too frustrating But you tell me over and over and over again, my friend You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction People hate that's on this Earth It really make love hard to unearth We're spilling blood and the human race If you win your war, it's the same old place The pounding drums, the pride and disgrace You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace Hate your next-door-neighbour, don't forget to say grace But you tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend You don't believe we're on the eve of de You tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
