The western world has a common dedication

To keep free people from Red domination

And maybe you can't vote, boy, but man your battle stations

Or there'll be no need for votin' in future generations



So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction



There are buttons to push in two mighty nations

But who's crazy enough to risk annihilation?

The buttons are there to ensure negotiation

So don't be afraid, boy, it's our only salvation



So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction



You tell me that marches won't bring integration

But look what it's done for the voter registration

Be thankful our country allows demonstrations

Instead of condemnin', make some recommendations

I don't understand the cause of your aggravation

You mean to tell me, boy, it's not a better situation?



So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction



You missed all the good in your evaluation

What about the things that deserve commendation?

Where there once was no cure, there's vaccination

Where there once was a desert, there's vegetation

Self-government's replacing colonization

What about the Peace Corp. organization?

Don't forget the work of the United Nations



So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction



So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction
