๐ Lyrics
The eastern world is explodin'
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, what's that gun you're totin'
Even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'
But you tell me over and over again
You don't believe you're on the eve of destruction
Eve of Destruction
The eve of destruction
Don't you understand what I'm trying to say
Can't you feel the fears that I'm feeling today
If the button is pushed, there's no running away
There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave
Take a look around you my boy, it's bound to scare you my boy
Eve of destruction
Yea my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin'
I'm sittin' here, just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
Handful of Senators don't pass legislation,
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is in disintegration'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'
And you tell me over and over again
That you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Eve of destruction, eve of destruction
Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama!
you may leave here, for four days in space
But when you return, it's the same old place
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace
Hate your next-door-neighbour, but don't forget to say grace
And you tell me over and over again (Eve of destruction)
I said you don't believe you're on the eve of destruction
We don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Eve of destruction
Eve of destruction
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, what's that gun you're totin'
Even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'
But you tell me over and over again
You don't believe you're on the eve of destruction
Eve of Destruction
The eve of destruction
Don't you understand what I'm trying to say
Can't you feel the fears that I'm feeling today
If the button is pushed, there's no running away
There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave
Take a look around you my boy, it's bound to scare you my boy
Eve of destruction
Yea my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin'
I'm sittin' here, just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
Handful of Senators don't pass legislation,
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is in disintegration'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'
And you tell me over and over again
That you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Eve of destruction, eve of destruction
Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama!
you may leave here, for four days in space
But when you return, it's the same old place
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace
Hate your next-door-neighbour, but don't forget to say grace
And you tell me over and over again (Eve of destruction)
I said you don't believe you're on the eve of destruction
We don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Eve of destruction
Eve of destruction
