WWIII

Don't you understand what I'm trying to say Can't you feel the fears I'm feeling today? If the button is pushed, there's no runnin' away There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave Take a look around you boy, it's bound to scare you, boy And you tell me Over and over and over again, my friend How you don't believe We're on the eve of destruction Eve of Destruction sung by Barry McGuire World War III Could we on the verge? Is this another cold war? Will it end badly? All it takes is a wrong word, itchy finger, Russian coup, a single accident and the world will end in fire followed by a long cold nuclear winter. There will be no one left to write poetry
