What's going on, what's going on
Picket lines and picket signs
And just talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on, what's going on
You know we've got to find a way
Oh, what's going on, what's going on
Picket lines and picket signs
Just because our hair is long
To bring back love here today
You know we've got to find a way
Listen, war is not the answer
Don't punish me with brutality
Father, father
Father, father
Don't punish me with brutality
There's no need to escalate
And just talk to me, so you can see
And brother, brother, brother
Every body thinks we're wrong
Oh, who are they to judge us
For only love can conquer hate
What's going on, I tell you what's going on
Oh, what's going on, what's going on
To bring back love back here today
You know you've got to find a way
Mother, mother
To bring back understanding today
And bring back some love back here today
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
Mother, mother
What's going on, what's going on
