The Way Of The World

I don't wanna be no soldier, I don't wanna shoot no gun
I don't wanna drop no bomb, I don't wanna hurt no one
I don't wanna fight no battles, I don't wanna settle no score
I don't even understand, what we're fightin' for
No, it ain't my war

That's the way of the world, that's what they tell me
That's the way of the world, they can't sell me
That's the way of the world, I can't explain it
That's the way of the world, but we can change it

We're burnin up the ozone layer, we're walkin on a real thin wire
Stirrin' up a hurricane, playin' with the devil's fire
Got a lot of dirty water, got a lot of dirty air
Got skeletons in the closet, but nobody looks in there
'Cause they're all scared

That's the way of the world, that's what they tell me
That's the way of the world, they can't sell me
That's the way of the world, I can't explain it
That's the way of the world, but we can change it

I just wanna live in peace now, with my guitar and my girl
Raise a little family, that's way it's supposed to be
That's the way of the world, yeah
That's the way of the world
That's the way of the world

That's the way of the world, that's what they tell me
That's the way of the world, they can't sell me
That's the way of the world, I can't explain it
That's the way of the world, but we can change it
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

That's the way of the world
Oh, yeah, yeah
That's the way of the world
