Lyrics

What's Going On

[Verse 1]

Mother, mother

There's too many of you crying

Brother, brother, brother

There's far too many of you dying

[Chorus]

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Come on, talk to me

So you can see, yes

What's going on

What's going on, yeah

[Verse 2]

Father, father

We don't need to escalate

War is not the answer

For only love can conquer hate

[Chorus]

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Come on, talk to me

So you can see

What's going on, what's going on

What's going on, what's going on

What's going on, what's a-going on

What's going on

[Verse 3]

Father, Father

Father, Father

Father, Father

Who are they to say we're wrong?

Who are they to judge us

Simply 'cause our hair is long?

[Chorus]

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Come on, talk to me

So you can see, yeah

What's going on, what's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

[Outro]

What's going on, yeah

What's going on
