Ben Haenow - What's Going On lyrics

Mother, mother
There's far too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some loving here today
Yeah yeah yeah

Father, father we don't need to escalate
War is not the answer
Only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way, yes we do
To bring some loving here today, oh oh
'Cause picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Come on talk to me, so you can see
What's going on what's going on
Yeah, what's going on

Mother, mother everybody thinks we're wrong
Who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long?
Oh Lord, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding
And some love right here today

'Cause picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Come on talk to me, so you can see
What's going on what's going on
Yeah, what's going on what's going on
