What's Going On

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know that we've got to find a way
To bring some loving here today. oh

Father, father, father
We don't need to escalate
War is not the answer, yeah
For only love can conquer hate
You know that we've got to find a way
To bring some loving here today

Picket signs and picket lines
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
Yeah, what's going on

Mother, mother
Everybody thinks we're wrong
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 here today

Picket signs and picket lines
Don't punish me with brutality
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 going on)
What's going on
Tell me what's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
