[Verse 1]
Am F
It seems to me that was are desolation
Am F
are better off played and saved upon a play station
Am F
than to kill and destroy our civilisation
Am F
or to leave it all in the hands of the United nations
[Chorus]
Am7 F
And it seems to me that the world is run by little boys
Am7 F
who insist upon playing with their nuclear toys
Em G Em G
while the innocent lie in fear in their beds they don't care who wins, the blue or the red
Am7 F Am7 F
and in the end we're all just the same, so who are they to play their little boys games
[Verse 2]
Am F
If we all spent enough time looking for solutions
Am F
as we do o find news to cause death and executions
Am F
we might actually find that we get along with each other
Am F
and if I reach out my hand I may find the hand of my brother
[Chorus]
Am7 F
And it seems to me that the world is run by little boys
Am7 F
who insist upon playing with their nuclear toys
Em G Em G
while the innocent lie in fear in their beds they don't care who wins, the blue or the red
Am7 F Am7 F
and in the end we're all just the same, so who are they to play their little boys games
[Verse 3]
Am F
And now it may not be as simple as I proclaim
Am F
but it would help a lot if they all stopped acting insane
Am F
if we can get rid of the hatred and the distrust
Am F
then we might end up breathing more than nuclear dust
[Chorus]
Am7 F
And it seems to me that the world is run by little boys
Am7 F
who insist upon playing with their nuclear toys
Em G Em G
while the innocent lie in fear in their beds they don't care who wins, the blue or the red
Am7 F Am7 F
and in the end we're all just the same, so who are they to play their little boys games
