	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
	Because 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, then 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
	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 and awful thing to make somebody think
	That they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops
	And either you're weak or you'll 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 and 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 a 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
	We went beyond where we should have gone
	We went beyond where we should have gone

	Trouble travels fast
