People Are People (Live at Red Rocks)

[Verse 1]

We're different colors, and different creeds

And different people, have different needs

It's obvious you hate me, though I've done nothing wrong

I've never even met you, what could I have done?

[Chorus x2]

People are people so why should it be?

You and I shouldn't get along

People are people so why should it be?

You should hate me

[Verse 2]

You're punching and kicking, and you're shouting at me

I'm relying on your common decency

So far it hasn't surfaced, but I'm sure it exists

It just takes a while to travel, from your head to your fist

[Bridge]

I can't understand

What makes a man

Hate another man?

Help me understand

[Chorus x2]

People are people so why should it be?

You and I shouldn't get along

People are people so why should it be?

You should hate me

[Outro]

I can't understand

What makes a man

Hate another man?

Help me understand
