[Verse 1]
Sister don't read, she'll never know
What about love?
Living a Christian song
What do we care, if she runs away?
What about love?
What about all I pray?

Go through the words, she knows a priest
What about God?
Living is all I see
What will you care, think she will say?
What about love?
That's all I pray

[Chorus]
Those abortion papers
Signin' your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about love, I’d like to have my child

[Verse 2]
Sister confused, she went along
What about love?
What about all I saw?
Biding her time, breathing the words
Singing a song, reciting a Bible verse

Father's confused, mother despair
Brother's in curse
What about all I've seen?
You know the line, you came alone
What about heart?
That’s all I've known

[Chorus]
Those abortion papers
Signin' your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about love, I'd like to have my child
Those abortion papers (Ooh!)
Signin' your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about love, I'd like to have my child
(chh chh - chh chh chh)
(chh chh chh)

[Verse 3]
Look at my words
What do they say?
Look in my heart
Burning is all heartbreak

What do you get?
What do you say?
What about love?
I feel my sin

[Chorus]
Those abortion papers
Signin' your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about love, I'd like to have my child
Those abortion papers (Ooh!)
Think about love, I'd like to have my child
(Ooh!) (chh chh - chh chh chh) (Ooh!)

[Bridge]
She could have been grateful
Where will she go?
What will she do
Through the world?

[Verse 4]
Sister don't know, where will she go?
What about love?
What about all I saw?
What will you care?
Don't be so confused
Love all the things
It's just the things I do

[Chorus]
Those abortion papers
Signin' your name against the Word of God
Those abortion papers
Think about love, I'd like to have my child

[Outro]
Those abortion papers
(Abortion papers)
(This paper) (Hee-hee)
Those abortion papers (Hee hee-hee hee-hee hee-hee)
I'd like to have my child (Hee-hee hee -hee-hee-hee)

Those abortion papers
(Hee-hee hee-hee-hee-hee)
(Hee-hee hee hee-hee)
Those abortion papers (Hee-hee hee-hee-hee-hee)
I'd like to have my child (Hee-hee hee-hee-hee-hee)
Those abortion papers (Hee-hee Hee-hee-hee-hee)
(Hee-hee hee-hee)

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
