The eastern world
It is explodin'
Violence is flarin', and the bullets are loadin'
You're old enough to kill
But not for votin'
You don't believe in war
Well what's that gun you're totin'
And even the Jordan River has bodies floating

And you tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
You don't believe we're on
The Eve of Destruction

Well don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say
Can't you feel the fear that I feel today
If the b___on is pushed there's no running away
There'll be no one to save
With the 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
You don't believe we're on
The Eve of Destruction

Well my blood's so mad
Feels like coagulating
So I'm just sitting here
Contemplating
You can't change the truth
It has no regulation
A handful of senators
Won't pass legislation
And marchers alone
won't bring integration
When human respect
Is disintegrating
This whole f___in' world
Is just so frustrating

And you tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
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
In your own back yard.
You might leave here
For four days in s___e
But when you return
It's the same old place
The pounding on the drums
And the pride and discgrace
You can bury yout dead
But don't leave a trace
And hate your next-door-neighbor
But don't forget to say grace

And you tell me
Over and over and over again my friend
You don't believe we're on
The Eve of Destruction

Oh no, you don't believe we're on
The Eve of Destruction
