The World Is Rated X

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Oh the world's situation should be rated X, oh rated XSaid the world's situation should be rated X, yeah rated XListen people, let only in the movie showTake a look outside, I swear the truth is really toldIt's life in living color; fighting, killing, drug-dealing, it's everywhereWhat about the crime? Rated XWhat about the killing, fighting, stealing everywhere?They let the children see life destroyedBut they won't let them see its makingWhat happened to God's creations?The one thing that really bothers me the mostIs how we come, how we take the lives of the foldThe world today is in a grave situationDirty water we can't drink, dirty air, it's so unfairNa na na... Oh I know something's missing all over the worldOoo, rated X (several times over sax solo)Oh I know something's missing all over the worldThe world's situation should be rated X, rated XThe world's situation should be rated X, rated XWhat about the crime? Rated XWhat about the killing, fighting, stealing everywhere?They let the children see life destroyedBut they won't let them see its makingWhat happened to God's creations?Where're the wars, where's the peace?Where's the joy, where's the woe for us all?Love is kneelin', rated XHate is overweight, rated X...and fade
