Too Young To Die (Extended Mix)

(album: Emergency On Planet Earth - 1993)

Everybody, don't want no war, no, no, no, no
We're too young to die
Too young to die
So many people all around the world yeah
All around the world seen their brothers fry?
I've seen your brothers fry?
What's the motive?

In your madness oh I wish I knew you've made my people cry
You've made my people cry
So politicians, this time I think you better keep your distance
Say, say it loud
We're too young to die

What's the answer I wish I knew to our problems
I think we've gone too high
I think we've gone too high
Little children never said a word now
You know they never said a word
Still they have to die
Well, I'm asking why
It won't be long, no, no, no dancing like they do yeah
Oh, like we do now
To put this sad world right
I gotta put it right
So don't you worry, our people we don't have to suffer no more
'Cause we're too young to die

You know we're too young

Yo here's a message

All gone when they drop the bomb
Can the politicians reassure?
'Cause here I am presuming that nobody wants a war
There's so many people praying just to find out if they're staying
But lately, stately governments and disillusioned leaders
So full of empty promises but rarely do they feed us
Put our backs against the wall, or don't we count at all

Can you decide, are you mesmerised
Do you know which side you're standing?
'Cause when it falls gonna take us all
Gotta know what we're demanding
I never lie, can't you hear the cry
Coming from on high
We're too young to die!

Everybody say it that I too know
I'm too young to die
Oh, nobody wants to die so young

We're too young to die
You know we're too young to die
Everybody say it
Too young to die
You know we're too young to die
Too young to die
You know we're too young to die
Too young to die
You know we're too young to die
