I've got a friend, he's a pure-bred killing machine

He said he's waited his whole damn life for this

I knew him well when he was seventeen

Now he's a man, he'll be dead by Christmas

So, everybody's going to war

But we don't know what we're fighting for

Don't tell me it's a worthy cause

No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober

If hope is a song, I guess it's all over

How to have faith, when faith is crime?

I don't want to die

If god's on our side, then god is a joker

Asleep on the job, his children fall over,

Running out through the door and straight to sky

I don't want to die

For every man who wants to rule the world

There'll be a man who just wants to be free

What do we learn but what should not be learnt

Too late to find a cure for this disease

So, everybody's gone to war

But we don't know what we're fighting for

Don't tell me it's a worthy cause

No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober

If hope is a song, I guess it's all over

How to have faith, when faith is a crime?

I don't want to die

If God's on our side, then God is a joker

Asleep on the job, his children fall over,

Running out of the door and straight to the sky,

I don't want to die

So, everybody's gone to war

But we don't know what we're fighting for

Don't tell me it's a worthy cause

No cause could be so worthy

If love is a drug, I guess we're all sober

If hope is a song, I guess it's all over

How to have faith, when faith is a crime?

I don't want to die

If God's on our side, then God is a joker

Asleep on the job, his children fall over,

Running out of the door and straight to the sky,

I don't want to die

I've got a friend, he's a pure-bred killing machine

I think he might be dead by christmas
