"This is a personal experience for me. 'World War III' deals with the challenge of a girl who keeps attacking you, provoking you, trying to fight you all the while she's the only one fighting." (Nick Jonas)
Lyrics
Tonight I walked into the bedroom
You were visibly upset
Tellin' me I made a bad move
But I didn't do nothin'
You start screamin' wake the neighbors
Everybody's out for blood
Didn't want no confrontation
'Cause of you that's what I've got
Well you gotta chill out cause baby I don't wanna fight with you
And every battle that we fought just made us look like fools
No you can't have a World War III
If there's only one side fighting
And you know, whoa-oh
That there's lessons left to learn
Every time you attack
Doesn't drive me to fight you back
Then I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be
A World War III
World War III
Now you're rounding up your army
Turning all your troops on me
Telling lies just to feel happy
But I won't retaliate
No you can't have World War III
If there's only one side fighting
And you know, whoa-oh
That there's lessons left to learn
Every time you attack
Doesn't drive me to fight you back
Then I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be
A World War III
Well you gotta chill out 'cause baby I don't wanna fight with you
And every battle we fought just made us look like fools
No you can't have a World War III
If there's only one side fighting
And you know, whoa-oh
That there's lessons left to learn
Every time you attack
Doesn't drive me to fight you back
Then I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be
A World War III
Not Gonna be a World War III
Every time you attack
Doesn't drive me to fight you back
Then I know, whoa-oh
That I'll never let it be
A World War III
World War III
World War III
