What's So Funny about Peace Love and Understanding

www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJkOyc_phy4

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

I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?

And each time I feel like this inside,
There's one thing I wanna know:
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?
What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?

"What's So Funny 'bout Peace Love and Understanding" by Elvis Costello & the Attractions, 1979
