Lyrics
The Love War
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everybody here is a freak, And if you disagree you're even weirder
The world should disinherit the meek,
So let's go for broke and arm the geeks
authority ...It's what we allow,
And if we're better looking then victory is ours
So spin the bottle, baby, and how,
We've got a war to win, let's win it now
The love war was won with a single love bullet from a love gun
And the Plan has love for everyone!
Don't be left out when the love war breaks out Yeah,
oh-wah-oh-wah-oh-oh
It's treason in this town to not be getting down Yeah,
oh-wah-oh-wah-oh-oh
And every day could be Valentine's Day (Oh, oh, oh, YEAH!)
Lovin' is a threat to The Man,
And if he had his way he'd squash it out right
Despising what he can't understand,
So arm yourself and defend your land
They try to make a joke of our might
But the history of freedom will never be denied
The carriers of liberty's lights:
Oh, Jefferson, Voltaire, Thomas Paine, and Barry White!
The love war was waged by a million love soldiers in a love rage,
And the Plan is fighting every day!
You better pick a side when the love war arrives Yeah,
oh-wah-oh-wah-oh-oh
Lives to be loved and the love war needs you all Yeah,
oh-wah-oh-wah-oh-oh
It's treason in this town to not be getting down Yeah,
oh-wah-oh-wah-oh-oh
And every day would be Valentine's Day
And everyone would love to choose to love in their own way
So do your part; the traitors are kissed at dawn, that's what they say
And every day could be Valentine's Day
