The world is round, and we all suffer.
The saddest sound, there is no buffer.
From naked guns, to naked truths.
But I will never stop livin' out my youth.
We can work it out, we can make it right.
We can do most anything if we think it's worth our time.
We all want peace on earth, we all want piece of mind.
No water to drink in the middle of the ocean, we'll get it right.

Make love, not war before the world is over.
Do your good before the world is over.
Say your peace before the world is over.
Make love, not war.

We can work it out. I never had no doubt.
We'd do the right thing, do the right thing, do the right thing. x2

Make love, not war.

And maybe love, has had it's day.
I only say this in the most affectionate way.
' Cause we are always fighting, but you could never tell
that we pray to heaven 'cause we fear this may be hell.
We should all be happy, we should all be strong.
We should do like Rodney King and all just get along.
I'm citizen of planet earth, a guest to this one life.
A futurist and fatalist all wrapped up in one.

Make love, not war before the world is over.
Do your good before the world is over.
Say your peace before the world is over.
Make love, not war.

We can work it out. I never had no doubt.
We'd do the right thing, do the right thing, do the right thing. x2

Make love, not war.
