Lyrics for (What’s So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love & Understanding? - Live At The Dominion Theatre, 1978

Thank you very much! We're just gonna have time to do one more So you can all get home tonight This is called "What's So Funny 'Bout Peace, Love & Understanding" As I walk through this wicked world Searching 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 and understanding? Oh-oh What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding? And as I walk on through troubled times My spirit gets so downhearted 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, just makes me wanna cry What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding? Oh-oh What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding? Oh We must have peace Oh That's the deal of the human race 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 Just makes me wanna cry What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding? Oh-oh What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding? Oh-oh What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding? Yeah Oh, what's so funny? Richard Hell & The Voidoids Happy New Year!
