As I walk through this wicked world
Searching for light in the darkness of insanity
And I ask myself, is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred and misery?

‘Cause each time I feel like this inside
There’s one thing I want to know
What’s so funny about peace, love, and understanding?
What’s so funny about peace, love, and understanding?

As I walk on through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong ones
Who do I trust in?
And where is there harmony?
Sweet harmony

‘Cause each time I feel it slipping away
It just makes me want to cry
What’s so funny about peace, love, and understanding?
What’s so funny about peace, love, and understanding?

Where are the strong ones
Who do I trust in?
And where is there harmony?
Sweet harmony
‘Cause each time I feel like this inside
There’s one thing I want to know
What’s so funny about peace, love, and understanding?
