Well, guns or butter, what's it going to be?
Feed our poor and hungry or invent new enemies?
You might call me crazy, but it seems real clear to me -
Less guns, more butter
Oh guns or butter what are we going to do?
Teach our kids to read or invade Timbuktu?
You know they call me crazy for thinking like I do -
Less guns, more butter
Our president, he loves his little toy soldiers
So much he sends them out to hell and back
Our government, it can take the whole world over
But it don't mean that much to me if I'm living in a shack
Oh, guns or butter, what more can I say?
If you're thinking like I do I sure could use some help today
Just to let them know a little game and one we want to play -
Less guns, more butter
Well, that's what I said ...
Our darn president loves his little toy soldiers
So much he sends them out to hell and back
Our government, it can take the whole world over
What's it it gonna mean if I'm still living in a shack
Ohhhh, guns or butter?
What more can I say?
If you're thinking like I do, I sure could use some help
Just to let them know
(x8)
Oh, I've got to let them know
Woah ... less guns, more butter |
