I don't want to sing about anger and hate I don't want to sing about fear and defeat I don't want to sing about the things I always sing about I wish I could sing about love I don't want to sing about war and greed I don't want to sing about those we can't feed I don't want to sing about the things I always sing about I wish I could sing about love I don't want to sing about suffering and pain I don't want to sing for another campaign I don't want to sing about the things I always sing about I wish I could sing about love I don't want to sing about rights and wrongs I don't want to sing all the same old songs But I'll sing them, and sing them, 'til there's no need to sing them And then I can sing about love.
