  • All you hippies better start to face reality
    All your far fetched dreams of anarchy
    Better start to see things the way they are
    'cause the way things
    Are going they won't be goin' far

    World peace can't be done
    It just can't exist
    World peace can't be done
    Anarchy's a mess

    Things are getting hectic
    It's all gonna end
    You don't know what's waitin' up around the bend
    Open your eyes, perhaps you'll realize
    If aids don't get you then the warheads will

    All you hippies better start to face reality
    All your far fetched dreams of anarchy
    Better start to see things the way they are
    'cause the way things
    Are going they won't be goin' far

    World peace can't be done
    It just can't exist
    World peace can't be done
    Anarchy's a mess

    Things are getting hectic
    It's all gonna end
    You don't know what's waitin' up around the bend
    Open your eyes, perhaps you'll realize
    If aids don't get you then the warheads will

    World peace can't be done!
    World peace!
    It just can't exist
    World peace!
    World peace can't be done
    World peace!
    Anarchy's a mess!
    World peace can't be done!
    World peace!
    No it can't
    World peace!
    It just won't exist
    World peace! world peace! world peace! Writer/s: HARLEY FLANAGAN, JOHN JOSEPH, PARRIS MITCHELL MAYHEW
