God is great, God is good He guards your neighborhood Though it's generally understood Not quite the way you would You try to take the slack Stay awake and watch his back But something happens every now and then And someone breaks into the promised land Ah boy boy This world is not your toy This world is long on hunger This world is short on joy
A-e-i-o You speak as if you know What's good for everyone What's good in what you've done? What's good about a world in which War rages at a fever pitch And people die for the little things A little corn, a little beans
Ah boy boy This world is not your toy This world is, this world is Long on hunger Short on joy How much longer You gonna keep the world hungry boy?
You measure peace with guns Progress in mega-tons Who's left when the war is won? Soldier of misfortune-- Soldier of an angry call Soldier on foreign soil I'm not here to fight your war I know what you're fighting for
Ah boy boy This world is not your toy This world is, this world is Long on hunger Short on joy How much longer You gonna keep the world hungry boy?
