The Way of the World Songtext

The Way of the World Songtext
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.
That's the way of the world,
That's the way of the world.
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.
That's the way of the world,
That's the way of the world.
