Stop the fighting No more war! Guns barking, fights starting We just don’t know where to turn Mothers crying, fathers dying The waters are set to burn Modernization has reached every nation Tell me how civilized are we? The world is lovely, that makes us happy But we’re limited to what we see We’re living in a mad, mad world We’re living in a mad, mad world Not suitable for boy or girl A mad, mad world! Tell me: when will the war be over?! When will the war be over?! I wanna know, when will the war be over?! When will the war be over?! Stop the fighting No more war! Guns barking, fights starting We just don’t know where to turn Mothers crying, fathers dying The waters are set to burn So many wars But they’re destined to find defeat Mothers crying, fathers dying Jah can bring the lasting peace We’re living in a mad, mad world Times and times again I’ve got to tell you A mad, mad world Oh yeah! A mad, mad world! I wanna know: when will the war be over? Won’t somebody tell me? When will this war be over?! I wanna know We are praying for peace, we don’t want no war Mixed up crazy, mixed up world Frustrating boys and girls We’re living in a mad, mad world..

I am, I am, I am It's your life, if you've got the right to live it It's the way, the way it's supposed to be It's your right, the wanting, the sizing, the way it is In a positive energy Don't tell me, my house of fire will be over If I tell you, it's strong, what you want It's my song, and I've got the right to say it I've got to make it known, it's by your feelings You're holding fire, you're holding fire You're holding fire, I've got to tell you that I'm burning down And the real thing is, you ain't got no water You're hustling by, you're burning up now How can I tell you, bitter and sweet When you gotta know, I want to show you I'm gonna read Going around, boasting about yourself But it's you you are hurting, no one else I am trying, when you put down this son You have hurt me, but I won't cry no tears 'Cause the love of the Lord has strengthened me Moved all my fears, I'm gonna tell you that You're hustling by, you've got to know that And the real thing is, you ain't got no water You're holding fire, burning up now Work hard, work hard, you're behind How can I tell you how much you need to catch up? You've been around the world so many times Trying to stop everything I do I've worked so hard to see, tear it down But one thing I know, that I'm gonna be around, oh yeah You've got to know that, I'm gonna tell you that And the real thing is, you ain't got no water You're holding fire, no mercy, no mercy Burning down, burning down, burning down, burning down, burning down By your fire, you've got no water Your house on fire, your house on fire To come to your aid, and the real thing is You think that the war, the hunger, the fire, burning down Find your fire, and the real thing is You think that the war, the hunger, the fire
