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
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, eh eh
[Verse 2]
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, oh oh oh
[Chorus]
Picket lines (Sister)
And picket signs (Sister)
Don't punish me (Sister)
With brutality (Sister)
Talk to me (Sister) You can see (Sister)
Oh, what's going on? (What's going on?)
Baby, what's going on (What's going on?)
Yeah, what's going on (What's going on?)
Oo-oh! (What's going on?)
[Verse 3]
Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding
Understanding here today
[Chorus]
Picket lines (Brother)
And picket signs (Brother)
Don't punish me (Brother)
With brutality (Brother)
Sing it on and talk to me (Brother)
Talk to me (Brother)
Talk to me, tell me what's going on? (What's going on?)
Hey, what's going on? (What's going on?)
Yeah, what's going on
Hey, what's going on
Tell me what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on, ooh ooh ooh ooh
