J.M.'s Question
(One, two, three, four)
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 tar and nicotine
Well, what kind of world do we live in
When the babysitter treats all the kids so mean?
No trespassing, we'll blow your brains out
We'll do it with an atomic bomb
They're cuttin' down the rainforest, this 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 everything 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
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
Both 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
I think I need to lay down for a while
Well, what kind of world do we live in
When everything we do we do with such style?
Well, what kind of world do we live in
When eleven and seven equals two? Yeah
But what kind of world do we live in
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
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
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 tar and nicotine

Got to do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
Do it to your buddy 'fore he does it to you
