Stevie Wonder - Each Other's Throat lyrics

We are supposed to be sisters and brothers
But all we do is constantly dog one another
We are supposed to act as each other's cover
But we keep at each other's throat

Each other's throat each other's throat
Yo, it is no joke
We're at each other's throat - Aowl, Aowl

We are supposed to spread love and not evil
But we've been acting more
Like heathens than people
Treating our fellow man far
Worse than illegal
Because we keep at each other's throat

Each other's throat each other's throat
Yo, it is no joke
We're at each other's throat - Aowl, Aowl

Ut oh, 11 o'clock pm and here's the news
Another fatality caused by a family feud
Charged, tried
Sentenced by the jury of a brother's gun
Made sister's fiancee's wedding never
To be sung
He didn't like the way he treated the girl
So the boy played God, pow
He ended his world

He made a plea for temporary insanity
But left his sister insane permanently
This isn't new, this stuff happens everyday
Somebody doesn't like someone so
They blow them away
Too fast for reason, too quick to negotiate

Regret and sorrow happens a
Split second too late
Jealousy for power, greed for possession
Selfishness so you give someone
A faked out impression
Speaking of which I'm truly not impressed
So if seeing is believing- I don't
Want to see the mess

Heartless are we on the
Straight with no chaser
As if for negativity we got the vapors
Know as I love me so I do love my neighbor
Because we are too busy
At each other's throat

Each other's throat each other's throat
Yo, it is no joke
We're at each other's throat -Aowl, Aowl

Each other's throat each other's throat
Yo, it is no joke
We're at each other's throat -Aowl, Aowl
