lyrics

THE BEGINNING OF THE SUN

You hear people talk about
How everyone’s chilled with doubt
About where the world is headin’
Right into Armageddon
A solider soldier boy
Disposable tots for toys
From cradle straight to the grave
To fatal from home of brave
God bless America
C’mon give us a miracle
No need for hysteria
Everyone’s trying to scare ya
It’s a battlefield you know

Casualties take their toll
Let’s go for a casual stroll
Forget what you think you know
Sure is a heck of a show

I haven’t heard the word, man
About who holds the winning gun
It’s not the end of the world, man
It’s the beginning of the sun

Here in the land of the free
We’re slaves to democracy
We look on the brighter side
If it’s dark we just close our eyes
Can’t always see straight
Can’t always control your fate
Just give me the fullest plate
It’s not about love and hate, no
It’s a battlefield you know

Forever the optimist
It’s clever to coexist
Whatever the catalyst
With love on the shorter list

Have you heard the word, man
Winning is half the fun
It’s not the end of the world, man
It’s the beginning of the sun
