[Chorus 1]
Never had no need
For any military aid
And I never took charge of the light brigade
I got no castle to defend or attack
But still I seem to be picking up flack

[Verse 1]
I am the captain of this body of mine
I'll send fear into the enemy lines
On the ground, in the air, or at sea
They're all pointing a finger at me
I'm at war with the world
That's the way it must be
Gonna fight while I can
To put an end to this misery

[Chorus 2]
I'm at war with the world
I'll have to fight to be free
Yes, I'm at war with the world
Nobody's capturing me

[Chorus 1]
Never have no need
For any military aid
Never took charge of the light brigade
I got no castle to defend or attack
But still I seem to be picking up flack
[Chorus 2]
I'm at war with the world
I'll have to fight to be free
Yes, I'm at war with the world
Nobody's capturing me

[Outro]
War with the world
What do they want from me?
War with the world
Why don't they let me be?
