I'd like to teach the world to sing...

[absyntheNsugar]

in perfect har-mo-ny.....

come on FILL IN THE REST!

[Fenris]

1. Frankly, I wish the world would shut the Hell up

[NoPasaran]

2. I'd like to hold it in my arms

And keep it company

[1monster]

3. I'd like to see the world for once

All standing hand in hand
(hand in hand in hand...)

[NoPasaran]

4. And hear them echo through the hills

WIth peace throughout the land

[SheilaT]

5. I'd like to build the world a home

and furnish it with love

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

6. I prefer the NatLamp version

It was a subscription ad for the magazine, circa 1972 by the late, sainted Michael O'Donoghue:

I'd like to give the world a hug
And tell it jokes and stuff
Then pull its pants down to its shoes
And chase it through the rough
I'd tie it up with bonds and straps
And check its purse for change
Then leave it out at Moose Grin Hall
With our cousin who's deranged

[Enraged_Ape]

7. It's the real thing...

That's the way it should stay
What the world wants today...

is the real thing.

[SmileyBoy]

8. I'd like to buy the world some Coke, and sniff it all with me...
