You think that your way
Is the best way of all
You don't know everything
So you don't know it all
You don't respect a man
For the way that he feels
You can't make people do things
Against their will

Man of war
Don't go to war no more
Why don't you
Why don't you study peace
Man of war
Don't go to war no more
Study peace
Cause peace is what we need

Just because your army
Gives you strength
Gives you might
Truth is gonna win
Wrong will never conquer right
Every man has a right
To think and be free
You're like a spoiled brat
You want everything you see

Man of war
Don't go to war no more
Why don't you
Why don't you study peace
Man of war
Don't go to war no more
Study peace
?Cause peace is what we need

You think that your bombs, guns and planes
Make you a big man
When you attack and invade
On another man?s land
Trying to make him be
What you want him to be
Make him do
What you want him to do
Make him say
What you want him to say
It wasn't meant to be that way

You think your way
Is the best way of all
(Saying)
You don't know everything
So you don't know it all
(Everybody)
You got to respect a man
For the way that he feels
You can't make people do things
Against their will

Man of war
(Saying, saying)
Don't go to war no more
Why don't you
Why don't you study peace
Man of war
(Tell everybody)
Don't go to war no more
Study peace
Cause peace is what we need
