Won't you show me war
Won't you show me hate
Won't you show me holocaust
Won't you show me bombs
Won't you show me fallout
Won't you show me nuclear winter

You say these things will come
You say the fear has just begun
But I've never seen these things in my life
You say I should anticipate
These acts of fear, these acts of hate
But what good is it to worry all my life?

Won't you show me death
Won't you show me life
Won't you show me care for them both
Won't you show me Christ
Won't you show me Hell
Won't you show me the afterlife

You say these things will come
You say the fear has just begun
But I've never seen these things in my life
You say I should anticipate
These acts of fear, these acts of hate
But what good is it to worry all my life?

Won't you show me cancer
Won't you show me AIDS
Won't you show me terminal disease
Won't you show me paralysis
Won't you show me insanity
Won't you show me on what fear feeds

You say these things will come
You say the fear has just begun
But I've never seen these things in my life
You say I should anticipate
These acts of fear, these acts of hate
But what good is it to worry all my life?
