1. I don’t wanna
spend the rest of my life

looking
at the barrel of an Armalite,

spend the rest of my days
C Am
keeping
out of trouble like the soldiers say.

2. I don’t wanna
spend my time in hell

looking
at the walls of a prison cell,

I don’t ever want to play the
part

There has to be
an invisible sun,

it glows all night,

factory smoke and
acetylene light,

I face the day with my head
caved in,

looking
like something that the cat brought in.

4. And they’re only gonna change this place
C Am
by
killing everybody in the human race,

and
they would kill me for a cigarette,

but I
don’t even wanna die just yet.
