(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding - Nick Lowe

(Nick Lowe) 1978

As I walk through
This wicked world
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity. 
Oh yeah

I ask myself
Is all hope gone?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?
Oh yeah

And each time I feel like this inside (This inside)
There's one thing I got to know (Gotta know)
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?
Ahhhh oh ohh
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?

And as I walk on
Through troubled time
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes, sometimes
So where are the strong
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony

'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away (Slippin' away) 
It just makes me wanna cry (Cry)
So, what's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?
Ahhh ah ohh
What's so funny 'bout peace and love and yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah?

We must have peace
Moments in love
It's just for the children of a new generation

So where are the strong?
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony

'Cause each time I see it slippin' away (Slipping away)
It just makes me wanna cry (Cry)
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?
Ahhh ah ohh
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?
Ahhh ah ohh
What's so funny 'bout this little peace & love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
