War On War

Intro : E
        E
I'm not sure if you heard my last album.
A                       E
Some of that shit was true.
                                B7
I've given up smoking cigarettes, I stopped taking cocaine too.
A               E               A                       E
And I don't do MDMA no more, but I do still sing that song.
A                      E                       B7       E
I don't regret all the times that I did and I did have a lot of fun.

A               E
And a war on drugs ain't a war worth fighting.
B7              E
What about a war on misunderstanding?
A               E
What about a war on stupid politicians?
B7              E
What about a war on organised religions?
A               E       A               E
What about a war on war, what about a moment of peace.
A                       E               B7                      E
What about if we don't have a bloody war, we just spark up this spliff.

E                               A                       E
Well we're always told to remember, remember and never forget
                                        B7
about World War One and World War Two and the tragedy and death that came with that.
A               E               A                       E       A               E       
We keep it in our classrooms and we embed it in our minds as if it was an achievement 
B7       E
for human kind.
A                               E               A                       E
Well what if we teach something different and what if we talk of the times
A                     E                    B7                         E
when humans succeeded in living together without going out of their minds.
A                       E       A               E
And what if we teach about hope and of kind generosity.
A                       E               B7                              E
Understanding that everyone lives here together and everyone's got the same needs.

Take the boom-box out of boom town and put it in the Gaza Strip and get my mate Mike to DJ it 
and drop
some heavy shit.
A               E       A               E
And maybe, just maybe, everyone will come and dance,
   A               E               B7                      E
pass a couple of pills around and they might even forget about the past.
