Here it is once again in our face
Why haven't we learned from our past
We're at the crossroads of the human race
Why are we kicking our own ass

[Chorus]
We want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace
And we want it fast

We want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace
And we want it fast

We're on the eve of destruction my friends
We are about to go too far
Politicians think that war is the way
But we know that love has the power

[Chorus]
We want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace
And we want it fast

We want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace
And we want it fast

The solution is simple and plain
There won't be peace if we don't try
In a war there is nothing to gain
And so many people will die

[Chorus]
We want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace
And we want it fast

We want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace, we want it
Yes we want peace
And we want it fast
