who needs peace when we've got the bomb who needs to love when you got the bowl who needs money when youve got your credit you got your plastic paying all your bills who needs books when you got tv you don't need to read with the vcr who needs to cook we got the microwave you don't need to walk when you've got a car we be livin in a perfect world ??? a system helpless by itself ??? who needs to get up and change the channel when the remotes can do that for you who needs children when youve got abortion you can kill your babies if you want to who needs books when you got tv you don't need to read with the vcr who needs to cook we got the microwave you don't have to walk when you've got a car <i>[chorus]</i> ???
