J.m.'s Question Lyrics & Chords By John Mellencamp
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 rainforest 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 everything we do turns out so wrong
Well, what kind of world do we live in
When eleven and seven equals two
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 everything we do we do with such style
Well, what kind of world do we live in
When eleven and seven equals two
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
