Eddy Grant Lyrics
"War Party"

You invite me to a war party me no wanna go
Everybody seem to be inviting me
To a war party me no wanna go
Heard about the last one so thanks but-no thank you, you

You killed off all the Indians and you killed off all the slaves
But no quite so you killed off the remains
You a look for me I'm looking for you
I can't believe what they say about you is true

That you're a bad star just like Pharaoh
You killed the children just like Pharaoh
Now you send a ticket for me
It don't have R.S.V.P.

Oh Lord it's a war party me no wanna go
Everybody seem to be inviting me
To a war party me no wanna go
Heard about the last one so thanks but-no thank you, you

You've invited all our wise men many time before
To dance around your fires and even out your scores
And when tolls taken of the valiant and the brave
The only decoration is the one upon the graves

Oh no you're a bad star just like Pharaoh
You killed the children just like Pharaoh
Now you send a ticket for me
And it don't have R.S.V.P.

Oh Lord it's a war party me no wanna go
Everybody seem to be inviting me
To a war party me no wanna go
Heard about the last one so thanks but-no thank you

Live right, live right

Please don't send no ticket for me
No don't send no ticket
No don't send no ticket for me
If it don't have R.S.V.P.

Oh Lord it's a war party me no wanna go
Everybody seem to be inviting me
To a war party me no wanna go
Heard about the last one so thanks but-no thank you

Do you wanna go, say no
Oh, do you wanna-na-na go, say no
Me no wanna go right now
Me no wanna go right now

They invite me to a war party me no wanna go
Everybody seem to be inviting me
To a war party me no wanna go
Heard about the last one so thanks but-no thank you
