Turned on the TV
More crime in the streets
More trouble in the Middle East
And fires out west

Politicians flinging dirt
Got decension in the church
Another law suit in the works
Man, you talk about a mess

Too much tension between Miss Liberty and The Eiffel Tower
It's about time we all made up at some big happy hour

I think the world needs a drink
I think enough's enough
She's been spinning around so long, I'd say she's pretty wound up
Calm down, sit back, relax
Tear up the contracts and save the ink
Yeah, I think the world needs a drink

I bet we'd get something done
Over 2 for ones
Rubbing elbows with the big guns
Wouldn't that be cool?

Call all the rich and the poor
The peace keepers and the warlords
We'll cut some deals over nothing more
Than a shot of 90 proof

There ain't nothing wrong a few cold beers, can't iron out
In fact you tell me just when and where and I'll buy the first round

I think the world needs a drink
I think enough's enough
She's been spinning around so long, I'd say she's pretty wound up
Calm down, sit back, relax
Tear up the contracts and save the ink
Yeah, I think the world needs a drink

Hey, let's all calm down, sit back, relax
Tear up the contracts and save the ink
Yeah, I think the world needs 
Dont you think the world needs a couple drinks?

Well, I do
Yeah, that's right
