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!
