​The Beat
If Killing Worked
Turn on your TV, see what they've done?
They've made our culture look like a setting sun
But we're better than that, because we know how
If killing worked, it would have worked by now
If killing worked, it would have worked by now
If killing worked, it would have worked by now
If killing worked, it would have worked by now
If killing worked, it would have worked by now

Now we're all grunts in the human army
Four million at war and one billion starving
We're sick to death of those old boys rules
So we'll make our futurе or we'll die like fools

For how can wе live, when all that we've learnt
Is to give more pain in return?

If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)

How can we live when all that we've learnt
Is to give more pain in return?
And how can we live until we all learn
Just to be more kind in return?
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
If killing worked, it would have worked by now (If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
(If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
(If killing worked, it would have worked by now)
