Marvin Gaye — The World Is Rated X Alternate Mix

[Chorus] Oh, the world's situation Should be rated X, rated X Said, the world's situation Should be rated X, yeah, rated X Listen, people [Verse 1] Not only in the movie shows Take a look outside, it's where the truth is really told It's life in living color Fighting, killing and dope dealing, it's everywhere [Chorus] What about the crime? Rated X What about the killing, fighting, stealing everywhere? They let the children see life destroyed But they won't let them see the making Oh, what happened to God's creation? [Verse 2] The one thing that really bothers me the most Is how we calmly take the lives of other folk The world today is in a grave situation Dirty water we can't drink, dirty air, it's so unfair Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na Baby, something is missing all over the world It's alright, it's okay You and me, baby, can withstand All the sin and corruption this land We got love, we got peace If we could hold it, spread it all over world [Chorus] Oh, then the world's situation Won't be rated X, rated X Do you hear me? When I preach all that I've learned We'll have happiness and love, it'll be oh, so sweet And then we jive in the master plan We can walk together, side by side, hand in hand Oh, love is still rated X We all know is hate is all the way rated X [Bridge] Where's the love? Where's the peace? Where's the joy? Where's the hope for us all? God is watching, He knows where you're at Yes, he's watching the situation, that's a fact [Outro] Oh, the world's situation Should be rated X, woo Situation
