LOVE NOT WAR, THAT’S WHAT I ASK
IT’S WHAT I NEED IT’S WHAT I’M FOR

PEACE NOT HATE, AND MAKE IT FAST
BEFORE ANOTHER DAY GOES BY LOVE NOT WAR

IF I HAD MY WAY, I’D CHANGE THE RULES OF THE WORLD
AND EVERY DAY, TELL EVERY MAN, BOY AND GIRL.

AND SO I SAY, OF THIS I’M SURE
WELL IT WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE WITH LOVE NOT WAR

YEH, IF I HAD MY WAY, I’D CHANGE THE RULES OF THE WORLD
AND EVERY DAY, TELL EVERY MAN, BOY AND GIRL.

SO SPREAD SOME GOOD, FOR GOODNESS SAKE
AND BEFORE IT GETS TOO LATE LOVE NOT WAR

BEFORE ANOTHER DAY GOES BY LOVE NOT WAR
COS IT WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE WITH LOVE NOT WAR
