介绍： 此曲是60年代美国的“抗议歌曲”。因为直击现实的歌词内容，此曲发布后轰动一时，不仅受到民众的推崇，亦被多位音乐人传唱灌录——此次上传的便是其中最为知名的一版。另一方面，极富争议性的内容也为它带来了保守派群体的批判，乃至于部分电台的禁唱。

无论如何，时代在变化。在历史的大尺度上，一切流言蜚语都显得苍白无力，唯有智者的哲思能贯彻始终。遗憾的是，在冷战结束后的第31年，在“新冷战”前途未卜的今天，这首歌依旧带有深刻的现实意义。

英文歌词如下：

The Eastern world, it is explodin'
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'?
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'
But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
How you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

Don't you understand what I'm trying to say
Can't you feel the fears I'm feeling today?
If the button is pushed, there's no runnin' away
There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave
Take a look around you boy, it's bound to scare you, boy
And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
How you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin'
I'm sittin' here just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
Handful of senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'
And you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
How you don't believe
We're on the eve of destruction

And think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
Ah, you may leave here for four days in space
But when you return, it's the same old place
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace
Hate your next door neighbor but don't forget to say grace

And you tell me
Over and over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
No no, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
