War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And love means nothing   In some strange quarters   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And I heard them banging   On hearts and fingers   People fill the world   With narrow confidence   Like a child at birth   A man with no defense   What's mine is my own   I won't give it to you   No matter what you say   No matter what you do   Now we're fighting   In our hearts   Fighting in the street   Won't somebody help me?   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And love means nothing   In some strange quarters   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And I heard them banging   On hearts and fingers   Man is far behind   In the search for something new   Like a Philistine   We're burning witches too   This world of fate   Must be designed for you   It matters what you say   It matters what you do   Now we're fighting   In our hearts   Fighting in the street   Won't somebody help me?   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And love means nothing   In some strange quarters   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And I heard them banging   On hearts and fingers   After the bird has flown   He walked ten thousand   Miles back home   You can't do that to me, no   You can't do that to me   You can't do that to me, no   You can't do that to me   In this heart of mine   I find a place for you   For black or white   For all the children, too   Now we're fighting   In our hearts   Fighting in the street   Won't somebody help me?   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And love means nothing   In some strange quarters   War war is stupid   And people are stupid   And I heard them banging   On hearts and fingers
