The Way of the World

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
we got a lot of dirty water - we got a lot of dirty air
got skeletons in the closet - but nobody looks in there
cuz they're all scared
chorus
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
that's the way of the world
