Lyrics
0:08Until the philosophy which hold one race
0:12Superior and another inferior
0:20Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
0:33Everywhere is war me say war
0:41That until there are no longer first class
0:45And second class citizens of any nation
0:51Until the colour of a man's skin
0:53Is of no more significance
0:57Than the colour of his eyes
1:00Me say war
1:03That until the basic human rights are equally
1:08Guaranteed to all without regard to race
1:13Dis a war
1:16That until that day
1:20The dream of lasting peace world citizenship
1:27Rule of international morality
1:33Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
1:36To be persued but never attained
1:42Now everywhere is war war
1:50And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
1:54That hold our brothers in Angola in Mozambique
2:02South Africa sub-human bondage
2:09Have been toppled utterly destroyed
2:15Well everywhere is war me say war
2:23War in the east war in the west
2:29War up north war down south
2:36War war rumours of war
2:42And until that day the African continent
2:48Will not know peace we Africans will fight
2:54We find it necessary and we know we shall win
3:02As we are confident in the victory
3:08Of good over evil good over evil good over evil
3:18Good over evil good over evil
Until the philosophy which hold one race Superior and another inferior Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned Everywhere is war me say war That until there are no longer first class And second class citizens of any nation Until the colour of a man's skin Is of no more significance Than the colour of his eyes Me say war That until the basic human rights are equally Guaranteed to all without regard to race Dis a war That until that day The dream of lasting peace world citizenship Rule of international morality Will remain in but a fleeting illusion To be persued but never attained Now everywhere is war war And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes That hold our brothers in Angola in Mozambique South Africa sub-human bondage Have been toppled utterly destroyed Well everywhere is war me say war War in the east war in the west War up north war down south War war rumours of war And until that day the African continent Will not know peace we Africans will fight We find it necessary and we know we shall win As we are confident in the victory Of good over evil good over evil good over evil Good over evil good over evil
