TAKE ME OUT OF THE WAR GAME
Tune: Take me out to the ball game
Take me out of the war game,
Let’s all leave in a crowd
Let’s all say that we don’t want to plan.
The price of conquest is too high to pay,
And we’ll root, root, root for life’s living,
If war games are played, it’s a shame
‘Cause we’re one, two, three – saying no!
To the old war game.
Take me out of the war game,
Let’s go play with the kids,
There’s lots of them here who need someone near
To feed them and hug them and give them a cheer.
And we’ll root, root, root for the small ones,
And give out sport a new name;
Call it two, three, four billion “nos”
To the old war game.
Join with us in a new game.
Bring your family and friends..
We’re just getting started, we’re full of heart,
Come and join us, it’s time for a start.
And let’s root, root, root for life’s living,
‘Cause we’re out to stake a new claim:
Let’s hear four, five, six billion yells
For a NO WAR GAME.
