Lyrics
The western world has a common dedication To keep free people from Red domination And maybe you can't vote, boy, but man your battle stations Or there'll be no need for votin' in future generations So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction There are buttons to push in two mighty nations But who's crazy enough to risk annihilation? The buttons are there to ensure negotiation So don't be afraid, boy, it's our only salvation So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction You tell me that marches won't bring integration But look what it's done for the voter registration Be thankful our country allows demonstrations Instead of condemnin', make some recommendations I don't understand the cause of your aggravation You mean to tell me, boy, it's not a better situation? So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction You missed all the good in your evaluation What about the things that deserve commendation? Where there once was no cure, there's vaccination Where there once was a desert, there's vegetation Self-government's replacing colonization What about the Peace Corp. organization? Don't forget the work of the United Nations So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction
