In a war far away, what are they fighting for?
Most on this problems that we cannot seem to get along
If there were problems there can't they solve them now?
Although you may not comprehend peace is fought for in the end

It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
Sometimes it makes me laugh
Sometimes it makes me cry

Will there be such a day when peace comes to stay?
With all the problems in the world, I can't tell you that it would
Don't they know that through peace we could change the world?
It's seems to me they know no more that peace is what they're fighting for

It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
Sometimes it makes me laugh
Sometimes it makes me cry

I'm beginning to wonder why
I won't tell no lie, I just don't know why
No matter how I try, I wonder why, I wonder why

When I'm grown and a man, will I fight a war?
I hope there'll be no wars by then
But the fight for peace may never end

It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
Sometimes it makes me laugh
Sometimes it makes me cry

It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
Sometimes it makes me laugh
Sometimes it makes me cry

It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
It's not a perfect world, I don't wanna lie
It's not a perfect world
