Paula Cole War Lyrics

War Lyrics

Until the philosophy which holds one race

Superior and another
inferior

Is finally and permanently discredited and
abandoned

Everywhere is war, me say war

That until there is no longer
first class

And second class citizens of any nation

Until the colour of
a man's skin

Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes

Me
say war

That until the basic human rights are equally 

Guaranteed to
all, without regard to race

Dis a war

That until that day

The dream
of lasting peace, world citizenship

Rule of international morality

Will
remain in but a fleeting illusion

To be pursued, but never attained

Now
everywhere is war, war

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes

That
hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,

South Africa sub-human
bondage

Have been toppled, utterly destroyed

Well, everywhere is war,
me say war

War in the east, war in the west

War up north, war down
south

War, war, rumours of war

And until that day, the African
continent 

Will not know peace, we Africans will fight

We find it
necessary and we know we shall win

As we are confident in the
victory

Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil

Good over
evil, good over evil, good over evil
