Now this whole crazy world is just too frustratin’
You don’t believe
It will make stuff hard to under
We’re on the eve of destruction
Over and over and over again, my friend
But you tell me
You don’t believe
Over and over and over again, my friend
Hate your next-door neighbor, but don’t forget to say grace
You’re old enough to kill, but not for votin’
People I hate, that's understood
We’re on the eve of destruction
My blood’s so mad, it feels like coagulatin’
Over and over and over again, my friend
Over and over and over again, my friend
And that Jordan River has bodies floatin’
If the button is pushed there’s no runnin’ away
You can bury your dead, but don’t leave a trace
Was feeling blooded to human race
And a handful of senators can’t pass legislation
You don’t believe
We’re on the eve of
If you win your war it's the same old place
You can’t twist the truth, it knows no regulation
When human respect is disintegratin’
And marches alone can’t bring integration
But tell me
We’re on the eve of destruction
Yeah, you don’t believe
Take a look around ya boy, it's bound to scare ya boy
But tell me
There’ll be no one to save with the world in a grave
We’re on the eve of destruction
Over and over and over again, my friend
We’re on the eve of destruction
You don’t believe
But you tell me
We’re on the eve of destruction
But you tell me
You don’t believe
You don’t believe
You don’t believe
Can’t you feel the fears that I’m feelin’ today?
The poundin’ drums, the pride and disgrace
I’m sitting here just contemplatin’
[Incomprehensible]
Don’t you understand what I’m tryin’ to say
