What's Going On

I say to the mother, mother, mothers (Mother, mother, mothers)
There's too many of you crying
I say to my brother, brother, brothers (Brother, brother, brothers)
There are far too many of you dying

To bring some lovin' here today (Bring lovin' here today)

Father, father (Father, father)
There's no need to escalate no
Cause war is not the answer (War is not the answer)
Only love can conquer hate yes

You know we've got to find a way (We've got to find a way)
We've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today (Bring loving here today)
(Bring loving here)

Picket lines (Sister)
And picket signs (Sister)
Don't you punish me (Sister)
With brutality (Sister)
Talk to me (Sister)
So you you can't see

Everybody thinks we're wrong
But who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long ('Cause our hair is long)
