Frank Sinatra - World War None Lyrics
Where I live in the desert, its so peaceful and warm.And the cares of the world drift by, like clouds reflected in a quiet poolBut there always comes a time, when a man has to think of the future,(war, war, war!) has to think of his children, (war, war, war!)And the world they will live in (war, war, war, war!),Im not sure if I can do anything to help them, but I can try, I can try.Time to build us a fire, seven hundred feet high,We can fashion a fire (fire) that will reach the sky (reach the sky)We can feed the flames with the unkind deeds weve done (with the fire),cause weve got to get ready, for world war none.(what we want is to burn our sins in a sort of furnace,)(well be stoking the fire with the lies we know)All our false suspicions we can burn them one by oneThat will help us get ready for world war none.(a little love is more effective than a rifle,)(a little faith will take you farther than it can)(the rule we follow is the one forever spoken)(they havent got the truth on their lips).Keep on feeding the fire, till the fire is hot,With those un-neighborly feelings we deny weve got.Keep on trying for peace, until that peace is won.Then youre practically ready for world war none.(a whispered word or touch is louder than a bugle)(a silent prayer is so much stronger than a sword,)(and the bombs that cant replace the stained glass window)For which we should thank the good lord, thank the good lord)(thank you, thank you, thank you)If we cherish our fire (if we cherish our fire)It could possibly be (it could possibly be),Bright enough to be seen, (bright enough to be seen)Far across the sea (far across the sea),When those other countries (when those other countries)<see> what we have done (what weve done)Maybe theyll help us get ready (get ready, get ready)<for world war none.>(world war none!)
