Picket lines and picket signs
What's goin' on
Don't punish me with brutality
There's too many of you cryin'
What's goin' on
You know we've got to find a way
Father, father
Simply 'cause our hair is long
But who are they to judge us
To bring understanding here today
(Brother, brother)
What's goin' on
(Father, father)
You know we've got to find a way
What's goin' on
Father, father
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Far too many of you dyin'
You know we've got to find a way
What's goin' on
What's goin' on
Brother, brother
War is not the answer
To bring some lovin' here today
Talk to me, so you can see
To bring some lovin' here today
What's goin' on
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Only love can conquer hate
Picket lines and picket signs
We don't need to escalate
(Father, father)
