Lyrics

NOISE (version of WAR for the US-market, WAR having been declined by the US-record company for its inconvenient words - in 1976) A day full of work is done now and I want to rest. But noise follows me in my room - no silence to get: Guns going off on the late late T.V.-show, transistors blare from below, jets chewing air with a scream above me - There must be something wrong! Noise, everywhere, everywhere - look around man! Look how we live in the country and towns; Well there's not much for us. Highways and buildings of concrete and steel, an airport not far away. Planes wake me up, I can't sleep in the night - and they find that it's right. Noise, everywhere, everywhere - look around man! We must take care that technics can't get hold of us, 'cause if we don't stop we will kill ourselves in a while, bad smells fill the cities, no green in the towns, Mother nature gives up with a sigh. No water to drink and bad air to breathe - and that will be the end! Stop! Stop it now! Can't you see it's late! Stop it now! Silence and peace is all we need....
