Never had no need

For any military aid

And I never took charge of the light brigade

I got no castle to defend or attack

But still I seem to be picking up flack



I am the captain of this body of mine

I'll send fear into the enemy lines

On the ground, in the air or at sea

They're all pointing a finger at me



I'm at war with the world

That's the way it must be

I'll fight while I can

To put an end to this misery



I'm at war with the world

I'll have to fight to be free

Yes I'm at war with the world

Nobody's capturing me



Never have no need

For any military aid

Never took charge of the light brigade

I got no castle to defend or attack

But still I seem to be picking up flack



War with the world, with the world

I'll have to fight to be be free

Yes I'm at war with the world, with the world

Nobody's capturing me



War with the world

What do they want from me?

War with the world

Why don't they let me be?
