If you sang the song, the way it was written
And you march along, to the beat of the drum
Someday soon, you gonna wake up singin'
Battle is over, but the war goes on Everybody plays follow the leader
What if the leader has a gun
Remember when you jumped,
to the 8 o'clock whistle
Battle is over, but the war goes on You close your eyes when you hear the thunder
Cry in the rain and smile in the sun
Who do you fool, but me and you brother?
The battle is over, but the war goes on If talk was money, you'd be a millionaire
If thoughts could k**, there'd be no one here
So many thinkin' evil and talkin' jive
But its in only true love, this old world can stay alive
