You invite me to a war party
Me no wanna go
Everybody seem to be inviting me to
A war party, me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you
You killed off all the Indians
And you killed off all the slaves
But not quite
So you killed off the remains
You a look for me, and I'm looking for you
I can't believe what they say bout you is true
That you're a bad star just like Pharoah
You killed the children just like Pharoah
Now you sent a ticket for me
It don't have R.S.V.P
Oh Lord it's a war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you
You've invited all our wise men
Many times before
To dance around your fires
And even out your scores
And when the tolls taken
Of the valiant and the brave
The only decoration is the one upon the graves
Oh no You're a bad star- just like Pharoah
You killed the children just like Pharoah
Now you sent a ticket for me
And it don't have R.S.V.P
Oh Lord it's a war party
Me no wanna go
Everybody seen to be inviting me to
A war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you
Please don't send no ticket for me
No don't send no ticket
No don't send no ticket for me
If it don't have R.S.V.P
Oh Lord it's a war party
Me no wanna go
Everybody seen to be inviting me to
A war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you
Do you wanna go, say no
Do you wanna go, say no
Do you wanna go, say no
Me no wanna go right now
Me no wanna go right now
They invite me to war party
Me no wanna go
Heard about the last one
So thanks but no thank you
