Who needs 'please' when we’ve got guns?
Of God wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a Dodge
Freedom can be freezing take the picture from the pretty side
Just stamp it and send it to somebody who’s pretending to care
And so I will cook all your books
Who needs keys when we’ve got clubs?
That they have to choose, pushing for peace, supporting the troops
And either you’re weak or you use brute force-feed the truth
And choose them over conversations
Pick up the beat, stop hogging the feast
Mind your manners, wave your banners
That’s no way to treat an enemy
'Cause it’s a battle when you dabble in war
We say anytime, anywhere, just show your teeth and strike the fear
But beyond where we should have gone
Who needs peace when we’ve gone above
Learn how to use them and abuse them
Beyond where we should have gone
Or you can sleep through the static
We went beyond where we should have gone
What a wonderful world that this angle can see
You store it up, unleash it, then you piece it together
The truth is we say not as we do
Come on and tell us what you’re trying to prove
You’re too good looking and mistooken
We went beyond where we should have gone
Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks
Who needs keys when we’ve got clubs?
Who needs peace when we’ve gone above
Relationships are overrated, “I hated everyone,” said the sun
Shock, an awful thing to make somebody think
Whether the storm drain running rampant
Well mighty mighty appetite we just eat ‘em up and keep on driving
But beyond where we should have gone
I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch
But who needs to see what we’ve done?
But who needs sleep when we’ve got love?
The feelings that rained down on the plains, all dried and cracked
You could watch it instead from the comfort of your burning beds
Who needs 'please' when we’ve got guns?
Stuck between channels my thoughts all quit
Waiting for things that never came
