As the requested lyrics are not provided, below is an interpretation of the Justified Ancients of Mu-Mu's song "All You Need Is Love". The song is a cover of The Beatles' song with the same title but with additional lyrics and a different instrumental.
The song's central theme is the idea that "all you need is love" to be happy and fulfilled in life. However, the added lyrics caution against blindly trusting those in authority, rejecting consumerism and advocating for social and political change.
The first verse mentions the "spinning lottery wheels" of society, which alludes to the idea that success and wealth are often based purely on chance and luck rather than hard work or merit. The following line "I've got my first mansion, it's understood in the trade" is a sarcastic comment on the greed and materialism prevalent in modern society. The chorus then asserts that regardless of these societal pressures and expectations, all we need is love.
The second verse continues this critique of capitalist society, criticizing the idea that "every year the decorations get harder to find" - indicating how the commercialization of holidays and events serves only to make corporations richer. The final lines of the verse, "Vote for me and I'll set you free / Rap on, brother, rap on", urge the listener to reject policies that maintain the status quo and instead fight for change.
Overall, the song is a powerful message about the potential for love and unity to overcome the worst aspects of society, while simultaneously cautioning against false promises and dangerous ideologies. It is a call to action to live lovingly and to fight for a better world.

I've got this white vinyl. I was one of the lucky 500 people to get one as I'd interviewed Bill and Jimi for a fanzine a month before. I've still got it mint condition.

This was pretty much pulled...the label didn't wasn't to get sued for using unauthorized Beatles and Samantha Fox samples! Like the Beastie Boys on acid, The Jams/KLF/The Timelords were DECADES ahead of their time!! A great first single from these innovators of modern rock...
@Killerdillerboy
So true Crazy Cajun - How i miss these times - Jut like they did "The Timelords" - "Doctorin' The Tardis" what pure class!!

This was the Dj promo copy, Bill and Jimi didn't think about copyright until Paul McCartney and co objected.
