Eve Of Destruction

the Eastern world it is exploding

dont you understand what im trying to say

think of all the hate there is in red china

violence flaring and bullets loading

and cant you feel the fears that im feeling today

then take a look around to selma alabama

youre old enough to kill but not for voting

if the button is pushed theres no running away

you may leave here for four days in space

you dont believe in war but whats that gun youre toting

theyll be know one to save with tha world in a grave

but when you return its the same old place

even the jordan river has bodies floating

take a look around you boy its bound to scare you boy

the pounding of the drums the pride and disgrace

you can bury your dead but dont leave a trace

hate your next door neighbor but dont forget to say grace

chorus

but ya tell me over and over and over again my friend

ah you dont believe were on the eve of destruction

yer my bloods so mad feels like coagulating

im sitting here just contemplating

i cant twist the truth it knows no regulation

hand full of sedatives dont pass legislation

and marches alone cant bring integration

when human respect is disintegrating

this whole crazy world is just to frustrating
