Lysistrata - Todd Rundgren

Lysistrata, open up the bedroom door

What is the matter, ain’t you in love with me no more?

I enlisted in the army today

One more time before I march away

Make me feel like a big strong man

You say you don’t care about my pride

You love me too much just to let me die

And you won’t let me come inside

Unless I don’t go to war no more

Lysistrata, little boys like to have their fun

And you know I gotta put on my colors and get my gun

Every able bodied man that I know

Every patriot is packed to go

Won’t you give me a last goodbye

I’ll be sent off to a distant land

To spill my blood upon some foreign sand

And I may die by an enemy’s hand

And then I won’t go to war no more

Won’t go to war, no

Then I won’t go to war no more

Send the boys all back to the farm

Tell the troops it was a false alarm

'Cause if I die I wanna be in your arms

And so I won’t go to war, no, I won’t go to war

Said I won’t go to war no more
