Love's In Need Of Love Today
Stevie Wonder · Natural Wonder (Disc 1)
Here's your friendly announcer
I have serious news to pass on to everybody
What I'm about to say
Could mean the world's disaster
Could change your joy and laughter into tears and pain
(chorus)
It's that love's in need
Of love today
Don't delay
Send yours in right away
Hate's goin' round
Breakin' many hearts
Stop it please
Before it's gone too far
OooOooOo
OooOoOo
OooOooOo
OooOooOoooo
The force of evil plans
To make you it's possession
And it will if you let it destroy everybody
We all must take
Precautionary measures
And if it's joy you treasure, then you'll hear me when I say
(chorus 4x)
