W.A.R.

It was quiet in the morning
He had dreams he's never seen before
Suddenly someone really loudly
Rings the bell at his front door
There were two men gloomy looking
With the energy of a world war
There's something wrong with those people
He'd never seen such faces before
From the first sight he didn't realize
That those jerks were coming for him
But he heard the rumors about this war
And to go there was never his dream
They were smiling very dumbly
Saying: "Yes boy, we need you!"
But he didn't listen to what they mumbled
He starts thinking what he's gonna do
From their mouths fakin' speakin':
"Boy, you're gonna be OK
You got to learn the things we tell you
And you'll be a hero one day"
He gave'em a sign
Quickly packed his things
An in a few minutes he was ready to escape
He jumped out of the window
And ran down the street
And he knew for sure it wasn't a mistake
For three days he was lonely
In the city like a homeless dog
No one helped 'im
No one spared 'im
He's got no food no home nothing to smoke
He didn't know what he could do
This situation frustrated him too
Next day he's tired complete
They had caught him - what a stupid defeat!
Now he's sitting in the car between two angry cops
Cannot move his hands in handcuffs
They'll force 'im to to the war
That's the story end
But he'll try to escape whenever he can!
(Chorus):
RUN TO ESCAPE THIS FREAKIN' WAR
RUN IF YOU CANNOT BREAK THE LAW
RUN IF YOU CANNOT STAND THEM ANYMORE!
