I've Known No War Lyrics

 I've known no war
 And if I ever do I won't know for sure
 Who'll be fighting whom
 For the soldiers lonely tomb
 Now opens as soon as the referee's gun starts to roar
 I'll know no war
 
 Galbraith took his pen
 To break down the men
 Of the German army defeated
 On the nineteenth day
 Of a spring day in May
 Albert Speer was deleted
 And as soon as the battle was over
 I was born in victorious clover
 And I've never been shot at or gassed
 Never tortured or stabbed
 And I'm sure - I'll never know war
 
 I know I'll never know war
 And if I ever do
 The glimpse will be short
 Fireball in the sky
 No front line battle cries
 Can be heard and the button is pushed
 By a soul that's been bought
 I'll know no war
 
 In and out of reach loft
 The medals are lost
 The
His provinces now
 Are the bars of the town
 His songs and his poems of failure
 For his grandchildren can't see the glory
 And his own kids are bored with the story
 But for him they'd have burned behind netting
 >From the brink they were grabbed
 And I'm sure
 I'll never know war
 
 I've known no war
 And if I ever do I won't know for sure
 Who'll be fighting whom
 For the soldiers lonely tomb
 Now opens as soon as the referee's gun starts to roar
 I'll know no war
 
 War - I've known no war
 I'll never know war
 And if I ever know it
 The glimpse will be short
 Fireball in the sky
 No front line battle cries
 Can be heard as the button is pushed by a soul that's been bought
 And the armies remaining will judge without people or courts
 And there's no point pretending that knowing will help us abort
 I'll know no war
