War / No More Trouble - Medley / Live At The Rainbow Theatre, London / June 2, 1977

Until, the philosophy
Which holds one race superior
And, another
Inferior
Is finally
And perminantly
Discredited
And abandoned
Well everywhere is war (War)
Me say war (War)

And until there's no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the color of a man's skin
Is of no more significance
Than the colors of his eyes
I've got to say war (War)
Until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all
Without, regard to race
Me say war (War)
'Cause until that day
The dream of lasting peace
World citizenship,
And the rule of international,
Morality

Will remain but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued
But never attained
Well everywhere is war (War)
Me say war (War)
War (War) in the East
War (War) in the West
War (War) up North,
War (War) down South
And its a war (War)
Rumuors and rumours of war (War)
And until
The ignoble and unhappy regimes that hold our brothers in Angola
In Mozambique, yeah
South Africa, yeah
Sub-human bondage
Have been toppled
Utterly destroyed

Well, everywhere is (War)
Everywhere is war (War)
War, (War)
Reach out and touch
War, (War) in the East
War (War) war in the West
War (War) up North
I would say
War (War) down South
Me say war (War)
Rumours of war
And until that day
The African continent
Will not know peace
We Africans will fight, we find it necessary

Tell you what
We know we shall win
We are confident
In the victory
Of good over evil, yeah
Of good over evil, yeah
Of good over evil
Well everywhere is (War)
Me say (War)
Everywhere is (War)
Some cryin' (War)
Some dyin' (War)
Some fightin' for freedom (War)
Some cryin' (War)

War in the, war in the, war in the (War)
War in the, war in the, war in the, war in the war (War)
War in the war (War)
Hey! We don't need
I would say, in a long time
No more trouble (No more trouble)
We don't need (We don't need)
No more trouble (No more trouble)
One more
We don't need (We don't need)
Hey hey, hey hey
No more trouble (No more trouble)
No more troubles
No more troubles

We don't need (We don't need) with God almighty
No more trouble (No more trouble)
No more trouble
Tell ya what
What we need is love (Love)
To guide and protect us on (On)
If you hope good down from above (Love)
Help the weak if you are strong now (Strong)
We don't need no trouble (We don't need no trouble)
Oh no

What we need is love (What we need is love sweet love)
We don't need, We don't need)
We don't need, we don't want we wa wa, we don't wa wa
No more trouble (No more trouble)
No more trouble, no more
No more trouble
We don't need (We don't need)
I would say, yeah, no more trouble (No more trouble)
No more trouble, no more
No more trouble, say
Speak happiness
It's sad enough without your vote (It's sad enough without your vote)
Ay!
Come on and speak of love (It's sad enough without your vote)
I mean it
We don't need no trouble (We don't need no trouble)
Oh no no

What we need is love (What we need is love sweet love)
We don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't want
No more trouble (No more trouble)
No more troubles
No more troubles
We don't (We don't need)
No more troubles (No more trouble)
No more trouble, I say
Speak happiness
Come on and speak of love
(It's sad enough without your vote)
I mean it
We don't need no trouble (We don't need no trouble)
What we need is love (What we need is love sweet love)
We don't need
