Joy Oladokun - War Games Lyrics

Joy Oladokun Lyrics

"War Games"

Sitting in a tower with a map of the free world
Generals draw their lines in trails of blood
Send their weapons out to take what no one man can own
Play toy soldiers with somebody's son

All these games
War games
Only the innocent pay
Always
War games

Only spineless politicians with their greedy eyes
Pray for revolution in the night
If we want good for all the children while we're still alive
We must remake this whole thing by fire

By fire

All these games
War games
Only the innocent pay
Always
War games

Only the young and the innocent pay
The price for the reckless games that we play
Only a fool would keep standing in place
Hoping that somewhere somehow things will change

Only the young and the innocent pay
The price for the reckless games that we play
Only a fool would keep standing in place
Hoping that somewhere somehow things will change

All these games
War games
Only the innocent pay
Always
War games

Only the young and the innocent pay
The price for the reckless games that we play
Only a fool would keep standing in place
Hoping that somewhere somehow things will change

Only the young and the innocent pay
The price for the reckless games that we play
Only a fool would keep standing in place
Hoping that somewhere somehow things will change
