Eve Of Destruction
( Perry / P.F. Sloan / Johnny Depp )
Well... this whole world it is exploding
Violence flarin'... bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war but whats that gun you're totin'
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'
And you're tellin' me
Over and over and over again my friend
Ah... you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction
Dont'cha understand what I'm tryin' to say
Cant'choo feel the fears that I'm feelin' today
If the buttons' pushed there's no runnin' away
There'll be no one to save with the whole world in a grave
Take a look around you boy... it's bound to scare you boy
And ya tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
Ah... you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction
And ya tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
Ah... you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction
Yeah... my blood is so mad feels like coagulating
I'm sittin' here just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth it knows no regulation
A handful of senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin'
This whole crazy world is just... just too frustratin'
And ya tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
Ah... you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction... yeah
And ya tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
Ah... you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction
