Lover Not a Fighter

Author: Genie
Theme:
I'm a lover
Not a fighter
Need your love
To lift me higher
If you're a lover
Not a fighter
Come on and love me

Life's too short for fussin and fightin'
Let's get to unitin' not dividin'
Call a/the truce
Defuse your bombs
Love will right all wrongs

Jet in here and swing your arms around me
Let's burn the artillery
Stop the insanity
Let's sing harmony

VERSE 2
Lovers are blowin' up all around us
We got the love from above to ground us
Love was lost but now love found us
You and me baby

Let's be the change we wanna see on the planet
Light the flame and live to fan it
Love's the game; c'mon let's slam it
Turn your other cheek to me

'cause

__________
SPANISH:
Estoy amante (amadoro)
no peleadoro (combatiente)
quiero tu amor mas que el oro
si eres amante
no peleadora
ven y me ama

Why Genie wrote this touching song ‘Lover Not a Fighter’ for YOU

Shocked by the warmongering attitudes of my beloved American countrymen, I came up with this song to present the idea of nonviolent conflict resolution (turn the other cheek, etc.) in a sweet, fun, non-offensive way.

Study Notes

God gave/ We got the love from above to ground us

Touchin and squeezin
Kneadin' and pleasin'
Feelin that sweet love

/ forgiveness rights all wrongs

'cause we sing harmony /

'til death will you part me

Only peace can light love's lightnin'

Work/Hit me up and down and all about me ( / Sit real close / Snuggle close and listen to my heartbeat)

crank the key and mash the gas to start me
peace, harmony
fondle, grope,
Let's bless this mess and never ever d_mn it
/ Let's make love not war

I'll give my love to you
