Too Young To Die

Everybody
Don't want no war, no
No, no, no
We're too young to die
Too young to die

So many people
All around the world
All around the world
Seen their brothers fry
I seen your brother fry

What's the motive?
In that madness
Oh, I wish I knew, you made my people cry
You made my people cry

So politicians
This time
I think you'd better keep your distance
Say, sing it loud

We're too young to

What's the answer?
I wish I knew
To our problems
I think we've gone too high
(I think we've gone too high)

Little children
Never said a word, now
You know they never said a word
Still they have to die
Well, I'm asking why

It won't be long
No, no, no
Dancing like we do
Oh, like we do, now
To put this sad world right
(I gotta do it right)

So don't you worry
People, we don't have to suffer no more
'Cause we're too young to...

All gone when we drop the bomb
Can the politicians reassure?
'Cause here I am
Presuming that
Nobody wants a war

There's so many people praying
Just to find out if they're staying
But lately stately governments
And disillusioned leaders
So full of empty promises
But rarely do they feed us

Put our backs against the wall
Or don't we count at all?
Can you decide
Are you mesmerised?
Do you know which side you're standing?

'Cause when it falls, gon' take us all
Gotta know what we're demanding
I never lie, can't you hear the cry
Coming from on high

We're too young to die

Now don't you know, I'm too young to die
I'm too young, I'm just too young

Now don't you know, I'm too young to die
Oh, I'm too young
I'm just too young
