What The World Needs Now

(album: It's Spooky - 1989)

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of

Lord knows we've got enough pornography
There is X-rated theaters everywhere
Lord knows we've got enough crack houses
There are crack houses on every block

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of

Lord knows we've got enough heavy metal bands
Seems like the whole world is bowing down to Satan
Lord knows we've got enough devil-worshippers
There are secret cults in every town

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of

Lord knows we've got enough wars
They have filled the graveyards, no vacancy
Lord knows we've got enough atomic bombs
They could blow up the earth three times

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the one thing that there's just too little of

The world needs love
The world needs love
The world needs love
The world needs love
