Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody
Don't want no war, no, no-no-no
We're too young to die
Too young to die
[Verse 2]
So many people
All around the world, yeah
All around the world
Seen their brothers fry
I seen your brother fry
What's the motive
In their madness?
Oh, I wish I knew
[Verse 3]
You made my people cry
You made my people cry
So, politicians
This time I think you better keep your distance
Say, sing it loud
[Verse 4]
We're too young to doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
[Verse 5]
What's the answer?
I wish I knew, to our problems
I think we've gone too high
I think we've gone too high
Little children
Never said a word, now
You know they never said a word
Still they have to die
Well, I'm asking why
[Verse 6]
It won't be long, no, no, no
Dancing like we do, yeah
Oh, like we do now
To put this sad world right
I gotta put it right
So, don't you worry
People, we don't have to suffer no more
[Verse 7]
'Cause we're too young to doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
[Verse 8]
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
[Verse 9]
You know, we're too young
[Verse 10]
Yo, there's a message
[Verse 11]
All gone when they drop the bomb
Can the politicians reassure?
'Cause here I am presuming
That nobody wants a war
There's so many people praying
Just to find out if they're staying
But lately stately governments
And disillusioned leaders
So full of empty promises
But rarely do they feed us
Put our backs against the wall
Or don't we count at all?
[Verse 12]
Can you decide, are you mesmerized?
Do you know which side you're standing?
'Cause when it falls, gonna take us all
Gotta know what we're demanding
I never lie, can't you hear me cry?
Coming from on high
[Verse 13]
We're too young to die
[Verse 14]
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
[Verse 15]
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
[Verse 16]
Everybody say that I'm too young
Yeah, I'm too young to die
Oh, nobody wants to die so young
[Verse 17]
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Dah-dah-doo, dah-dah-doo-doo
D-doo-doo-doo, la-dah-doo, dum-dum-doo
[Verse 18]
You know we're too young
Too young, too young
You know we're too young, too young
You know we're too young, too young
You know we're too young, too young
Oh, everybody say that we're too young to die
[Verse 19]
(Too young to die, you know we're too young to die)
(Too young to die, you know we're too young to die)
(Too young to die, you know we're too young to die)
(Too young to die, you know we're too young to die)
