| Virginia’s in the bath house sayin', «Don't drink the water,»
|
| And I’m already in the swimmin' pool
|
| The woman in the straw hat said, «The meat ain’t worth eatin',»
|
| And sunbathin' here, baby, ain’t so cool
|
| There’s a hole in the ozone and the rats all got cancer
|
| From too much tartar and nicotine
|
| Well, what kind of world do we live in
|
| When the babysitter treats all the kids so mean?
|
| No trespassing will blow your brains out
|
| Will do it with atomic bomb
|
| They’re cuttin' down the rain forest and the food here’s fattenin'
|
| And I hope there’s no satanic message in this song
|
| But, there’s Live Aid and Farm Aid and all kind of hand grenades
|
| To help us all get along
|
| Well, what kind of world do we live in
|
| When ev’rything we do turns out so wrong?
|
| Well, what kind of world do we live in
|
| When eleven and seven equals two? |
| Yeah
|
| What kind of world do we live in
|
| When you do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you?
|
| Got to do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
|
| The preacher he hands out verse and scripture
|
| Just like he wrote it down himself
|
| Doctors and lawyers got a good thing going
|
| But that ain’t no place to go if you need help
|
| There’s too much sodium in my heartburn medicine
|
| And I think I need to lay down for awhile
|
| Well, what kind of world do we live in
|
| When ev’rything we do we do with such style?
|
| Well, what kind of world do we live in
|
| When eleven and seven equals two? |
| Yeah
|
| What kind of world do we live in
|
| When you do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you?
|
| Got to do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you |
