One two three four, can I have a little more?  
Five six seven eight nine, ten I love you

One two three what are we fightin’ for?  
Don’t ask me I don’t give a damn  
Next stop is Vietnam  
Five six seven open up the pearly gates  
There ain’t no time to wonder why  
Whoopee! We’re all gonna die.

I’m not scared of dying and I don’t really care  
If it’s peace you find in dying, well then, let the time be near  
If it’s peace you find in dying and if dying time is here,  
Just bundle up my coffin 'cause it’s cold way down there

</div>

I spread disease like a dog  
Discharge my payload a mile high  
Rotten egg air of death wrestles your nostrils

Launch the Polaris  
The end doesn’t scare us  
When will this cease?  
The warheads will all rust in peace

Mother do you think they’ll drop the bomb?  
Mother do you think they’ll like this song?  
Mother do you think they’ll try and break my balls?  
Ooo-Ah, Mother should I build a wall?

You got a heart so big  
It could crush this town  
And I can’t hold out forever  
Even walls fall down

When the walls  
Come tumblin’ down  
When the walls  
Come crumblin’, crumblin’  
When the walls  
Come tumblin’, tumblin’  
Down

Down with disease and the jungles in my mind  
They’re climbing up my waterfalls and swingin’ on my vines  
So I try to hear the music but I’m always losing time  
‘Cause they’re stepping on my rhythm and they’re stealin’ all my lines

Lines on my head from that one thing she said  
She spoke of strangers that don’t sleep two a bed  
Kept on trying, buying time,not waiting on fate  
I somehow got the feeling that I opened my eyes too late

You start a conversation, you can’t even finish it  
You’re talking a lot, but you’re not saying anything

Lost in the dangling conversation  
And the superficial sighs,  
Are the borders of our lives.

What shall we use  
to fill the empty spaces  
Where we used to talk ?

Your eyes explain a story  
That never had a start  
Your brow reveals the glory  
That’s hidden in your heart  
Your skin is fine china  
White as winter snows  
Your lips are always shining  
Turning up your nose

and the slow parade of fears  
without crying  
now I want to understand

I know you understand it all  
So Why dont I get back on my feet again.  
Every pain I feel inside my heart  
It takes a faith I know I can’t depart
