Where's The Love Something has been going on and I don't know what it is You don't mind the taking girl, but you don't know how to give You drove me crazy but I don't know baby You're thinking that it's me you're fooling Where's the right in, all of our fighting? Look at what you're doing Where's the love It's not enough It makes the world go 'round and 'round and... Where's the love Give it up It makes the world go 'round and 'round and 'round Can you tell me what you see whenever you look around? We're tripping all over ourselves and pulling each other down We're separating, consciousness is fading Are you thinking that it's me you're fooling? Where's the right in, all of our fighting? Look at, look at, look at what we're doing (bridge:) Dark clouds all around, lightning, rain pouring down Waiting for the bright light to break through Face down on the ground Pick us up at the lost and found We've got to change our point of view, if we want the sky blue We're segregating, consciences are fading You're thinking that it's me you're fooling Where's the right in, all of our fighting Look at what we're doing Won't you, won't you give it up -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.

Man From Milwaukee (bet you didn't know that...) It started at a bus stop in the middle of nowhere Sitting beside me was a man with no hair From the look on his face and the size of his toes He comes from a place that nobody knows Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why I've been sitting here too long by a man from Milwaukee He's been talking too long on his yellow walkie talkie He's been talking to Mars but I think he's wacky He says they'll come get him, come get him some day He says where he's from is called Albertane There they use more than 10% of the brain But you couldn't tell it from they way they behave They run around in underwear and they never shave Or maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating Letting this big-toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why (bridge:) This is Mother Bird calling Baby Bird Baby Bird come in, come in Baby Bird For the love of Pete come in! This is Baby Bird...sorry I was watching Court TV Do you copy? Do you copy? Of course we copy...24 hours a day...in color You wouldn't believe me if I told you the rest The man sitting by me who was barely dressed Flew off to Milwaukee or perhaps Albertane And left me at the bus stop just barely sane I've been sitting here too long thinkin' about Milwaukee I've been talking too long on my yellow walkie talkie I'm talking to Mars you may think I'm wacky I know they'll come get me, come get me someday I know they'll come get me and take me away I know they'll come get me, come get me someday If not tomorrow then maybe today.
