The Eve Of Destruction
8:13 P.M. EST
The Eastern world, it is explodin'; Violence flarin', bullets loadin'. You're old enough to kill, but not for votin'; You don't believe in war, but what's that gun your totin'? And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'. But you tell me over and over and over again, my friend, Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction. Don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say? Can't you feel the fears I'm feelin' today? If the button is pushed, there's no runnin' away'; There'll be no one to save with the whole world in a grave. Take a look around you boy, it's bound to scare you boy. And you tell me over and over and over again, my friend, Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction. Yeah, my bloods' so mad, feels like coagulatin'; I'm sittin' here just contemplatin'; I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation; Hand full of Senators don't pass legislation; When human respect is disintegratin'; This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'. And you tell me over and over and over again, my friend, Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction. Think of all the hate there is in Red China; Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama. You may leave here for four days in space; But when you return it's the same old place; The pounding of the drums, the pride and disgrace; You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace. It's your next door neighbor, all got to say grace. And you tell me over and over and over again, my friend, Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction No, no, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction THE EVE OF DESTRUCTION Barry McGuire. 1965
