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 we_ver got to find a way
To bring some lovin_ here today, hey

Father, father, we don_t need to escalate
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

CHORUS #1:
Picket lines and picket signs
Don_t punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh what_s going on, what_s going on
Yeah, what_s going on, ah, what_s going on
Ahhh....

Mother, mother, everybody thinks we_re wrong
Ah but who are they to judge us
Simply _cos our hair is long
Ah you know we_ver got to find a way
To brind some understanding here today

CHORUS #2:
Picket lines and picket signs
Don_t punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
What_s going on, yeah what_s going on
Tell me what_s going on, I_ll tell you what_s going on
