Trouble travels fast when you?re specially designed for crash testing   Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon   Come on and tell us what you?re trying to prove      'Cause it?s a battle when you dabble in war   You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together   Whether the storm drain running rampant   Just stamp it and send it to somebody who?s pretending to care      Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks   Learn how to use them and abuse them   And choose them over conversations   Relationships are overrated, ?I hated everyone,? said the sun      And so I will cook all your books   You?re too good looking and mistooken   You could watch it instead from the comfort of your burning beds   Or you can sleep through the static      But who needs sleep when we?ve got love?   Who needs keys when we?ve got clubs?   Who needs 'please' when we?ve got guns?   Who needs peace when we?ve gone above   But beyond where we should have gone   We went beyond where we should have gone      Stuck between channels my thoughts all quit   I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch   The feelings that rained down on the plains, all dried and cracked   Waiting for things that never came      Shock, an awful thing to make somebody think   That they have to choose, pushing for peace, supporting the troops   And either you?re weak or you use brute force-feed the truth   The truth is we say not as we do      We say anytime, anywhere, just show your teeth and strike the fear   Of God wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a Dodge   Pick up the beat, stop hogging the feast   That?s no way to treat an enemy      Well mighty mighty appetite we just eat ?em up and keep on driving   Freedom can be freezing take the picture from the pretty side   Mind your manners, wave your banners   What a wonderful world that this angle can see      But who needs to see what we?ve done?   Who needs 'please' when we?ve got guns?   Who needs keys when we?ve got clubs?   Who needs peace when we?ve gone above      But beyond where we should have gone   Beyond where we should have gone   We went beyond where we should have gone   Beyond where we should have gone
