The War Is Over - Phil Ochs [00:00:00]

Silent soldiers on a silver screen[00:00:03]

Framed in fantasies and dragged in dream[00:00:10]

Unpaid actors of the mystery[00:00:17]

The mad director knows [00:00:24]

that freedom will not make you free[00:00:27]

And what's this got to do with me[00:00:31]

I declare the war is over[00:00:35]

It's over, it's over[00:00:41]

Drums are drizzling on a grain of sand[00:00:50]

Fading rhythms of a fading land[00:00:57]

Prove your courage in the proud parade[00:01:04]

Trust your leaders [00:01:11]

where mistakes are almost never made[00:01:14]

And they're afraid that I'm afraid[00:01:18]

I'm afraid the war is over[00:01:22]

It's over, it's over[00:01:28]

Angry artists painting angry signs[00:01:36]

Use their vision just to blind the blind[00:01:43]

Poisoned players of a grizzly game[00:01:51]

One is guilty and the other gets the point to blame[00:01:58]

Pardon me if I refrain[00:02:04]

I declare the war is over[00:02:08]

It's over, it's over[00:02:14]

So do your duty, boys, and join with pride[00:02:28]

Serve your country in her suicide[00:02:36]

Find the flags, so you can wave goodbye[00:02:43]

But just before the end even [00:02:51]

treason might be worth a try[00:02:54]

This country is too young to die[00:02:57]

I declare the war is over[00:03:02]

It's over, it's over[00:03:07]

One-legged veterans will greet the dawn[00:03:16]

And they're whistling marches as they mow the lawn[00:03:22]

And the gargoyles only sit and grieve[00:03:31]

The gypsy fortune teller told me [00:03:38]

that we'd been deceived[00:03:42]

You only are what you believe[00:03:44]

I believe the war is over[00:03:49]

It's over, it's over[00:03:54]
