Hey Kid, wanna have some fun? Choose a side and here's your gun Brought up knowing right from wrong, squash the meek, inherit the strong Just try and cross the line, Don't even bother to waste my time What's that look in your eyes? It's time I cut you down to size This world ain't big enough for two, And I've got my sights on you WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE, I'M A WARHEAD, YOU'RE A WARHEAD A WARHEAD JUST LIKE ME? HE'S A WARHEAD, SHE'S A WARHEAD WATCH 'EM SCREAM 'N YELL WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE, A WARHEAD TOO WHEN I BLOW THEM STRAIGHT TO HELL Ramboy, it's us and them Just like your Daddy in Vietnam Monkey see, Monkey do, Your boy's grown up Just like you This world ain't Big enough for two and I've got my eye on you CHORUS I've seen Black heads, White heads, Red heads, Dead heads, Big heads, Shit heads, but, there's no heads Like WARHEADS!

Let's talk of peace,
Sounds so cliche
A novelty, catch phrase of the day
Middle, index,
Sign of the time
Just as complex,
As water to...

Someone said give peace a chance
And, that's all that we're saying
While we're sitting on the fence
Pretending,
Our hearts are in the right place
But, your face
Shows a trace of,

Hypocrisy,
Don't tread on me,
Now you can see

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me
We can't afford to say these words, lightly
Or else our world, will truly, rest in peace

Let's not pretend,
to justify
Rather amend,
Where treasures lie
Straight through the heart,
Peace can be found
That's where you start,
Not all around

Someone said give peace a chance
And, that's all that we're saying
While we're sitting on the fence
Pretending,
Our hearts are in the right place
But, your face
Shows a trace of,

Hypocrisy,
Don't tread on me, boy
Now you can see

Wars 'n rumors
Of wars, no one knows what for
Toys and soldiers
Deployed, on some foreign shore
Lords and rulers
Destroy, diplomatic rapport

Communists, dictatorships
Democracies, hypocrisies
Ask not what your country can do?
To a one world governmental zoo

POLITICAL, POLITICAL
POLITICALAMITY
IT'S AN-AR-CHY
POLITICAL, POLITICAL
POLITICALAMITY

Rich 'n poor
Salute your country's colors
Less is more
When one oppresses the other
Pride 'n power
Decorated upon collars

Donkeys, bears 'n elephants
All paper-trained on parliament
Ask not what your country can do?
To a one world governmental zoo

I had a dream, Last night I was blind And I couldn't see Color of any kind Picture the world, minus a rainbow When day becomes night, then where will the sun go Dancing alone, just me and my shadow Color me blind, so I can see no evil WHY DO WE DREAM, IN BLACK AND WHITE? COLOR ME BLIND WHY DO WE DREAM IN BLACK AND WHITE? COLOR ME BLIND I had a dream, I was looking, over the mountain But I've, I've yet to see the, The so-called promised land Picture the world, Without any color You couldn't tell, One face from the other I don't understand Why we fight with our brother Color me blind Just to love one another Color me, color you, COLOR ME BLIND

''You see the papers today?''

I read the news today, oh boy
About a tragic comedy
Newspaper hinted suicide
The letterhead read ''"Dear Johnny"''

The tainted truth was all it said
Sleep tight now that you've made your bed
An arrow that once pierced my heart
Points to the apple on your head

Three sides to every story
Yours, mine and Monday morning's

''"Cupid's dead"'', headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no
''"Cupid's dead"'', headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no

''Paper here. Get your papers here.
Extra. "Cupid's Dead."''

Oh, Romeo, Oh, Romeo
Where did our love go, Romeo?
If you read between the headlines
You wouldn't be the last to know

No mystery yet to unfold
A paperboy left in the cold
A love was said to never die
Withered away and just got old

Three sides to every story
Yours, mine and Monday morning's

''"Cupid's dead"'', headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no
''"Cupid's dead"'', headlines read
Cupid's dead, oh no no

"Our top story tonight is a crime of passion
The victim, an unidentified man,
is found in bed, wearing only a diaper,
holding a bow an arrow in one hand,
and clutching a letter in the other.
The letter simply read, ''Cupid's dead.''"

''(Extra, extra, extra, extra)''
Read all about it

Cupid's dead

Cupid is dead, deceased, I got peace of mind
Still it's hard to forget what it leaves behind
A lot of love lost, your feelings are wasted
Tasted the sweetness but now you're faced with

The thought of being alone, no more companionship
You can handle it, just abandon it
Leave it behind and look for the brighter day
Give it some time, 'cause it won't come right away

You gotta be standing strong, hold on to your dignity
Don't sit around saying, ''"Look what ya did to me."''
It's time to move on, you gotta continue
To look for a love of a life that's within you

Cupid is dead now, it's time to rely on
Yourself to cope, you got no shoulder to cry on
Cupid's Dead

One day
we'll find the time
to spend, together
until then, My Love

If I had one wish
It wouldn't be hard to choose
Seven Sundays in a row
'cause that's the day
That I spend with you

Someday soon,
you and I
will hold each other
once again, My Love

If I had one wish
It wouldn't be hard to choose
Seven Sundays in a row
Seven Sundays in a row
Seven Sundays in a row
'cause that's the day
That I spend with you

If I had one wish
It wouldn't be hard to choose

Flowers, I sent,
were found dead on their arrival
The words, I said,
inserted foot in my mouthful
So when, we dance,
My lead it ain't so graceful
(Isn't so, not ain't so)

I'm a hapless romantic
St-t-tuttering po-poet
Just call me a tragic comic
Cause I'm, in, in love with you

And when, we dine,
I forget to push in your seat
I wear, the wine,
spilling hearts all over my sleeve
A stitch, in time,
proposing down on my knees
(Splitting between the seams)

I'm a hapless romantic
St-t-tuttering po-poet
Just call me a tragic comic
Cause I'm, in, in love with you

Nobody, can know the,
trouble I've, seen
Nobody, can know the,
trouble I, get into,
when I'm with you

All the world's
a masquerade
made up of fools
and philosophers
Were it to rain
on our charade,
all washes away,
except for our true colors

If any people bothered
looking for truth, please,
STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
instead we choose to follow
footsteps of fools, please
STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
If nothing's new under the sun
for me and you
Won't somebody please...

STOP THE WORLD
STOP THE WORLD
I WANNA GET OFF
STOP THE WORLD
STOP THE WORLD
WHERE THERE IS LOVE

If we forget
yesterday,
We're bound to repeat it
tomorrow
It's not too late
to start today,
Better off safe,
than sorry

Do unto those as you would
do to yourselves, please,
STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
We need more feet to walk
in one another's shoes, please

STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
There's nothing new
under the sun
for me and you,
Won't somebody please...
