Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far to many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
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
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me oh you can see
Oh, what's going on, hey, what's going on
Oh, what's going on, hey, what's going on
Father, father
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Oh you know we've got to find a way
To bring understanding here today
Don't punish me with brutality
Come on, talk to me so you can see
Oh, what's going on, hey, what's going on
Oh, what's going on, I'm telling you what's going on
