[Verse 1]
Ripped Straight from the headlines
The devil's on every page
Keep away from the spotlight
'Cause people are drifting away

[Chorus]
And I just wonder
If you're my friend today
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
There's a roll like thunder
They killing our babies, Lord
They headed straight for the border
And we can no longer ignore it

[Bridge]
I just wonder
What the hell we fighting for?
Ooh, the hell we fighting for?
The crowds been running in place
Like ain't nobody else around
But you and I, we get by
And how much love won't it take
Before it all comes burning down, it ain't right
No, it ain't right now, baby
And I just wonder
I just wonder, I wonder
[Chorus]
If you're my friend today
Ooh, my friend
My friend, my friend today
Oh my, my friend today
Ooh, ooh
