[Verse 1]
I've been waiting on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun
Never really wanted to be number one
Just wanted to love everyone

[Pre-Chorus]
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than

[Chorus]
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war?

[Verse 2]
Every day waiting for the sky to fall
Big crash on a world that's so small
Just a boy with nowhere left to go
Fell in love with a voice on the radio

[Pre-Chorus]
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this than that?
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than

[Chorus]
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war?

[Post-Chorus]
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that

[Verse 3]
I've been waiting on a war since I was young
Since I was a little boy with a toy gun

[Pre-Chorus]
Is there more to this
More to this, more to this than

[Chorus]
Just waiting on a war?
Just waiting on a war?

[Post-Chorus]
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that
Just waiting on a war for this and that
There's got to be more to this than that

[Outro]
'Cause I need more
Yeah, I need more
Just waiting on a war
Just waiting on a war
Yeah, I need more
(For this and that)
(There's got to be more to this than that)
(Just waiting on a war)
Yeah, I need more
(For this and that)
(There's got to be more to this than that)
Just waiting on a war

Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
