Why does the world choose War?
Why does the world choose war?
When all it does is make sick and poor,
Families that were together now torn apart
I guess the VC soldiers really had no heart
Land they'd call home soon blown away
H-bombs, Hotchkiss, and the damn F1 Grenade
Because of this, an inflation rise
and storm clouds gathered in there eyes
When you turned on the t.v. to the same old station
seeing chanting and cheering of someones hatred
Communist and Democracy strike on face vs. face
Almost blowing the world, right from outer space
Now are son's and Husbands are gone
Oh where has this world gone so wrong?
Why have we ignored our own mother's cry?
Why have we not faced the children with tears in there eyes?
Why do we block out whats most important in life?
So tell me Mr.President, with all do respect,
why do we choose war?
Lets bring are soldiers home once and forever more
