I've got a friend
He's a pure-bred
killing machine
He says he's waited
his whole damn
life for this
I knew him well when
he was seventeen
Now he's a man
he'll be dead
by Christmas
And so
Everybody's going
to war
But we don't know
what we're
fighting for
Don't tell me it's
a worthy cause
No cause could
be so worthy
If love is a drug
I guess we're all sober
If hope is a song
I guess
it's all over
How to have faith
when faith is a crime
I don't want to die
If God's on our side
then God is a joker
Asleep on the job
his children fall over
Running out through
the door and
straight to the sky
I don't want to die
For every man who
wants to rule
the world
There'll be a man
who just wants
to be free
What do we learn
but what should
not be learned?
Too late to find a
cure for this disease so
Everybody's going
to war
But we don't know
what we're
fighting for
Don't tell me it's
a worthy cause
No cause could
be so worthy
If love is a drug
I guess we're
all sober
If hope is a song
I guess
it's all over
How to have faith
when faith is
a crime
I don't want to die
If God's on our side
then God is a joker
Asleep on the job,
his children fall over
Running out through
the door and straight
to the sky
I don't want to die
Don't want to die
I-I don't want to die
So everybody's
going to war
But we don't know
what we're
fighting for
Don't tell me it's
a worthy cause
No cause could
be so worthy
If love is a drug
I guess we're
all sober
If hope is a song
I guess
it's all over
How to have faith
when faith is
a crime
I don't want to die
If God's on our side
then God is a joker
Asleep on the job,
his children fall over
Running out through
the door and straight
to the sky
I don't want to die
Don't want to die
I-I don't
want to die
I've got a friend
He's a pure-bred
killing machine
I think he might
be dead
by Christmas
