1
Is this civilization
2
Is this all we're gonna be

A helpless United Nations
4
A censored BBC
5
War in the African nations
6
Hate in the Middle East
7
Just a mess of frustration
8
Waiting for release
9
Oh no!
10
When they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
11
Oh no!
12
When they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
13
I'm not ready to fight, I'm not ready to go
14
I saw an F-111
15
Beside a Kremlin guard
16
And the Magnificent Seven
17
In the printed word
18
Is this a public service
19
Or a civil war
20
While I sit here nervous
21
Waiting for a call
22
Oh no!
23
When they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
24
Oh no!
25
When they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
26
I'm not ready to fight, I'm not ready to go
27
Let cities crumble, empires waste
28
And generals find a resting place
29
For leaders too will be replaced
30
If fear and fate come face to face
31
Leave a red sky for night time
32
Know a mother's love
33
Here now for all time
34
Lose the tyrant's glove
35
Give the whole of the life lime
36
On the reaching palm
37
Leave us out of the dead line
38
For tomorrow's man
39
Oh no!
40
When they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
41
Oh no!
42
When they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
43
I'm not ready to fight, I'm not ready to go
44
Oh no!
45
When they beat a drum it's too much to swallow
46
Oh no!
47
When they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow
48
I'm not ready to fight, I'm not ready to go
