Three Little Birds

Bob Marley
Don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright
Singing' don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright

Rise up this mornin'

Smiled with the risin' sun
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true
Saying', (this is my message to you)

Singing' don't worry 'bout a thing

'Cause every little thing gonna be alright
Singing' don't worry (don't worry) 'bout a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright

Rise up this mornin'

Smiled with the risin' sun
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true
Sayin', this is my message to you

Singin' don't worry about a thing, worry about a thing, oh

Every little thing gonna be alright, don't worry
Singin' don't worry about a thing, I won't worry
"'Cause every little thing gonna be alright

Singin' don't worry about a thing

'Cause every little thing gonna be alright, I won't worry
Singin', don't worry about a thing
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright
Singin' don't worry about a thing, oh no
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright

Babylons Burning
The Ruts
Babylon's burning
You're burning the street
You're burning your houses
With anxiety

With anxiety
Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning
With anxiety
Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning

Babylon's burning
You're burning the street
You're burning the ghetto
With anxiety

With anxiety
Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning
With anxiety
Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning

Babylon's burning, baby

Can't you see?
Babylon's burning
With anxiety

You'll burn as your work

You'll burn at your play
Smoldering
With ignorance and hate

And with anxiety

 TpHE present war has produced many catch-

I words, among them,

A War to End War,

An Inconclusive Peace,

The Destruction of

Militarism,

The Establishment of the Rights of

Nationalities on an Unassailable Basis,

Free Nego- tiation by Free Peoples,

and This Must Never Occur Again.

Thus we see that none of the catchwords except

the last can possibly mean what they say; and

when they are cheered each time they reappear

in the Prime Minister's stock peroration. It Is

evident that he himself offers them as no more than

oratorical orchestration to the patriotic sentiment

of the assembly. They can be taken literally

only by Ignorant and simple persons to whom a

INTRODUCTION xi

European war is simply a football match conducted

with cannons.

Cato's formula for the ending

of the Punic wars was. Annihilate Carthage.

Carthage was annihilated; but its annihilation

brought no peace to Rome. The Irish are a con-

tentious and troublesome people; and the

proverbial receipt for peace in Ireland is to sink

the island for ten minutes into the Atlantic. Let

us suppose that Ireland is duly sunk, with England

and Prussia moored to it, not for ten minutes, but

for ever. The white and yellow races will still

confront one another across the Pacific. Italy,

France and Spain will still have to divide the heri-

tage of the Moors. Sweden will still watch Russia

with her hand qn her sword-hilt; and Russia will

still bum to protect the Balkans, to wrest Con-

xii INTERNATIONAL GOVERNMENT

stantinople from the followers of "the accursed

Mahound," to cling to Poland like a big brother,

and to pick up more of the White Man's Burden

in Asia than the other Powers may think healthy

for her, or than India, for instance, may be dis-

posed to cast on any shoulders but her own. Of

South America I say nothing except that it does

not look convincing as a Temple of Perpetual

Peace.

The

wise man looks for the cause of war not In

Nietzsche's gospel of the Will to Power, or Lord

Roberts's far blunter gospel of the British Will to

Conquer, but In the custom house. The formal

conquest of a territory may loom large as a senti-

mental grievance; but, as the case of Alsace-

Lorraine shows, it does not produce war. But

the appropriation of a market is another matter:

a very small economic grievance will rapidly be-

come the nucleus of an enormous mass of martial

and patriotic emotion. There is no prospect of

the end of this war being the end of International

market-cornering and tariff blockades; and as long

as war remains physically possible, such operations

will produce it as fatally in the future as in the

past.
''The reader of Pope, as of every author, is
advised to begin by letting him say what he
has to say, in his own manner to an open mind
that seeks only to receive the impressions
which the writer wishes to convey. First let the
mind and spirit of the writer come into free,
full contact with the mind and spirit of the
reader, whose attitude at the first reading
should be simply receptive. Such reading is the
condition precedent to all true judgment of a
writers work. All criticism that is not so
grounded spreads as fog over a poets page.
Read, reader, for yourself, without once
pausing to remember what you have been told
to think.
Henry Morley.

Reflection.
Time was, a sober Englishman would knock
His servants up, and rise by five oclock,
Instruct his family in every rule,
And send his wife to church, his son to school.
To worship like his fathers, was his care;
To teach their frugal virtues to his heir;
To prove, that luxury could never hold;
And place, on good security, his gold.
Now times are changed, and one poetic itch
Has seized the court and city, poor and rich:
