Watching TV just the other day,
|
Saw an advertisement, what can I say?
|
It showed a small baby, and some men in a war,
|
I thought to myself, "What's this fighting all for?"
|
|
And I felt sad,
|
Felt bad,
|
I'm not pleased,
|
There's no need,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Knew it just had to be,
|
Never knew how it was,
|
Knew it was just because.
|
|
I spoke to some fellows here, early last night,
|
One of those guys, he prepared for a fight,
|
He couldn't agree to the things that I said,
|
Am I speaking so free? He thought I should have been dead.
|
|
And I felt sad,
|
Felt bad,
|
I'm not pleased,
|
There's no need,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Knew it was just to be,
|
Never knew how it was,
|
Knew it was just because.
|
|
In my hotel room, a bible I saw,
|
[?] and what's more,
|
[?] no more [?],
|
So why not be like him, don't read all those [?]
|
|
I feel sad,
|
Feels bad,
|
Not pleased,
|
There's no need,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Knew it just had to be,
|
Never knew how it was,
|
Knew it was just because.
|
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Taking a hold on me,
|
Taking a hold on me.
