War is not healthy
for adults and children
It scars and it maims,
it blames and it kills them
War is not healthy,
and no-one should claim
The pain that's inflicted
could be worth the gain
It's money in the pockets of the armament makers
It's fame and it's glory for the generals and dictators
It's terror and shame and real human suffering
For the ones who lose most are the ones who have nothing
It's democracy, it's lunacy, it's history, it's victory
War is not healthy
for adults and children
It scars and it maims,
it blames and it kills them
War is not healthy
and no-one should claim
The pain that's inflicted
could be worth the gain
It's democracy, it's lunacy, it's history, it's victory
It's armchair warriors sucking their gums
It's merchants of horror polishing guns
It's praising the troops and waving the flag
It's widows and orphans carrying the bag
War is not healthy
for adults and children
