The War is Over - Kevin Coyne

War is over, baby, fighting’s all done

You can put away, baby, the big machine gun

War is over, no use for fighting anymore

Anymore, baby, no, no

War is over, ain’t no use for fighting anymore

You can hang up your gloves, baby

There ain’t no champion no more

You can go away, baby, lock your old back door

Take a holiday somewhere, somewhere

'Cross the sea, 'cross the sea, without me, baby

Oh, the war is over, baby

It’s over, baby, for you and me, oh yeah

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, come on

You can ground the aeroplane, put away the kites

You can take everything about

You can put away the search lights

You don’t need no camouflage

You don’t need, no, no, no, no, you need nothing, baby

Oh, the war is over, baby

Ain’t no use fighting anymore

Anymore, oh, it’s all done now, oh, yes

The war is over, baby, yeah, over, baby, yeah

Over, baby, yeah, ain’t no use fighting now

Stuff away your machine gun

Put it somewhere, I won’t peek
