  • I've been waitin' on a war since I was young
    Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
    Never really wanted to be number one
    Just wanted to love everyone

    Is there more to this than that?
    Is there more to this than that?
    Is there more to this than that?
    Is there more to this
    More to this, more to this than
    Just waitin' on a war?
    Just waitin' on a war?

    Every day waitin' for the sky to fall
    Big crash on a world that's so small
    Just a boy with nowhere left to go
    Fell in love with a voice on the radio

    Is there more to this than that?
    Is there more to this than that?
    Is there more to this than that?
    Is there more to this
    More to this, more to this than
    Just waitin' on a war?
    Just waitin' on a war?

    Just waitin' on a war for this and that
    There's got to be more to this than that
    Just waitin' on a war for this and that
    There's got to be more to this than that

    (Oh, oh)

    I've been waitin' on a war since I was young
    Since I was a little boy with a toy gun

    Is there more to this
    More to this, more to this than
    Just waitin' on a war?
    Just waitin' on a war?

    Just waitin' on a war for this and that
    There's got to be more to this than that
    Just waitin' on a war for this and that
    There's got to be more to this than that
    Just waitin' on a war for this and that
    There's got to be more to this than that
    Just waitin' on a war for this and that
    There's got to be more to this than that

    'Cause I need more
    Yeah, I need more
    Just waitin' on a war
    Just waitin' on a war
    Yeah, I need more
    (For this and that)
    (There's got to be more to this than that)
    Yeah, I need more (just waiting on a war)
    (For this and that)
    (There's got to be more to this than that)

  • Chimmy Changa from New JerseyI generally don't agree with Daves politics but I have always looked beyond that with him because he seems like such a nice guy and his music is great. But I kind of question his story about North Korea in the fall of 2020 because NK was generally pretty subdued under Trump and there was no issues. It was only until it became Clear Captain Poopy Pants was going to be President that NK started ramping up again!
