Whisper the words of wisdom no more Speak the words of wisdom no more Shout the words of wisdom no more The governments of the world agree That people need bombs and banks and barriers Harriers, tanks, and aircraft carriers to carry us to war To drop it at my front door But if no one pulled a trigger then no one would get shot If no one made the bombs, no one would get blown up If nobody believed in stinking countries There wouldn't be any territories to fight over If nobody held money as sacred There'd be food for all, not just those who can't afford it And if nobody voted for a government They wouldn't have the right to make people fight But first they treat us like we're nobody, no one Then it's join britain's fight, be someone--bomb someone But dead we're no more than dust on the floor Of the next generation Who are marching as to war But no more war, we won't go away 'cause no more war is something we've got to say No more war, we can try to make the fighting cease No more war, advertise for peace No more war, I know it's easier said than done But we can make a start by declaring peace No more war, look I know it's easier said than done But we can make a start by declaring peace By declaring peace Just remember in 1982 when the falklands war was happening The new musical express didn't say a word about it
