If U're sick of evil knocking on your door

Throw up the love sign once and 4evermore

If U'd rather make love and have a little fun

Throw up the love sign

everybody and not the gun

 

In a chariot of red and gold

The cool, fuzzy voice said

"Come save your soul"

Be4 the fear of rejection reared its head

He stood be4 the masses and calmly said

 

If U're sick of evil knocking on your door

Throw up the love sign once and 4evermore

If u'd rather make love and have a little fun

Throw up the love sign

everybody and not the gun

 

In the day of where and why we all belong

Don't no body wanna hear a silly love song

And if they did then we would

sing it on the news

While U're aiming your gun at me

and 'm aiming back at U

 

Pop, pop, pop go the pistol

Bang, bang, bang go the gun

Pop, pop, pop go the pistol

Bang, bang, bang go the gun

 

If U only had one year left 2 live

What good is the time U spend if

U got no love 2 give?

Let's all get up off the front

and find a cause 2 back

Then we could teach the babies

replications of the act

 

 

If U're sick of evil knocking on your door

Throw up the love sign once and 4evermore

If u'd rather make love and have a little fun

Throw up the love sign

everybody and not the gun
