Common Sense Vs. Bombs by Ywis Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1983

Every new intention’s like a birth
And it grows bigger day by day
The same with weapons on this earth
The arms race is born and goes its way
They have dangerous toys
Billions worth
But it is us who will have to pay
They treat the earth like there’s a third
And all that’s left for us is to pray

We must stop what’s going on
When we’re together we’re just as strong
As the people who are doing wrong
By destroying the world we’re living on

Many states are depending
On death and disease
It’s what their industries need
They feel responsible for none
And their deeds are ruled by greed
Now they think that they have won
Just because they took the lead
But the time has long past gone
For a weak protest and a modest plea

We must stop what’s going on
When we’re together we’re just as strong
As the people who are doing wrong
By destroying the world we’re living on

But I’m weak and full of fear
The end of life is drawing near
I am so meek I can not steer
And wait for you all
I will be at the rear

We mustn't let their dirty weapons in
To let them go on is a sin
In the universe we’re but a pin
But we’ll be dust
If the arms producers win
