Lyrics Phil Ochs – Never Again

Text:

I don’t know, but it seems to me
What a great world this would be
If everybody stopped their hating
Saw the devil and called him Satan

Never again, never again
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry
No more the cannons’ roar
No more we die

If all our boundaries melted away
From the china sea to the USA

Flags of war at last were faded
One world at last created

Never again, never again
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry
No more the cannons’ roar
No more we die

And if every man on every shore
Cast a ballot for peace or war
And when all votes were counted
White dove of peace was mounted

Never again, never again
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry
No more the cannons’ roar
No more we die

And if every man on every shore
Cast a ballot for peace or war
And when all votes were counted
White dove of peace was mounted

Never again, never again
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry

No more the cannons’ roar
No more we die
