"Beads On One String" lyrics
"Beads On One String"
Don't you ever say never
It don't mean a thing
Going to get us together
Like beads on one string
There's always someone to blame
You don't have to look far
Now the world is aflame
And God's in the stars
I don't care how you name Him
He is always the same
I just know that we shame Him
When we kill in His name
This can't go on forever
This war in a ring
Gotta bring us together
Like beads on one string
Don't you ever say never (Don't you ever say never)
'Cause it don't mean a thing (It don't mean a thing)
Gonna get us together (Gonna get us together)
Like beads on one string (Like beads on one string)
Every one of us perfect (Like beads on one string)
But we all have a flaw (Like beads on one string)
Then we look for the defects and we go off to war (Like beads on one string)
And we send all our children (Like beads on one string)
Again and again (Like beads on one string)
It's our fear that will fill them
(Like beads on one string)
But we're really the same
This can't go on forever
This war in a ring
Gotta bring us together
Like beads on one string
Don't you ever say never (Don't you ever say never)
'Cause it don't mean a thing (It don't mean a thing)
Gonna get us together (Gonna get us together)
Like beads on one string (Like beads on one string)
Don't you ever say never (Like beads on one string)
'Cause it don't mean a thing (Like beads on one string)
(Like beads on one string)
Don't you ever say never
(Like beads on one string)
(Like beads on one string)
(Like beads on one string)
(Like beads on one string)
Don't you ever say never
(Like beads on one string) Say never
(Like beads on one string)
Got no better thing
(Like beads on one string) Gotta get us together
Like beads on one string
(Like beads on one string)
Oh yeah
(Like beads on one string)
Like beads on one string
(Like beads on one string)
(Like beads on one string)
