Lyrics

What's Going On

[Verse 1]

The things you say

Keep goin' round in my head

Now tell me baby

Do you mean what you said?

[Chorus]

(Ah, ah) What’s going on

(Ah, ah) What's going on

[Verse 2]

I can't remember

How we got into this

But now our love

Seems so much more than a kiss

[Chorus]

(Ah, ah) What’s going on

(Ah, ah) What's going on

[Bridge]

I don't want you to know

I don't want you to stay

All I want is to know

How we got this way

[Chorus]

What's going on

What's going on

Oh

[Verse 3]

You seem to know

Just how to get what you want

I think we'd better

Keep a [2:15?] on our hearts

[Chorus]

(Ah, ah) What's going on

(Ah, ah) What’s going on

[Bridge]

I don’t want you to know

I don't want you to stay

All I want is to know

How we got this way
