Zebrahead - What’s Goin’ On lyrics

Just another day
Seems like everybody's (got a problem)
No one knows how
But (we all want to solve 'em)
You could give a (dime) give a (hand)
Or give a (shit) or you could look away and
(never deal with it)

For example
This girl is pretty fly for a white gal
All the guys want her
Though she's a juvenile
She's really kinda sad and just don't care
'Cause the only one she wants
Is her best friend Claire

What's going on? What's going on?
Ready or not (not)
The world moves on and on and on and
On and on and on and on
Yo, what's going on?

There's nothing much to me
I'm simple like you are, ordinary
(simple like you are) my tired eyes can see
That time may fly and what's left is
Meant to be i'm looking out
And you're looking in
It's taken more than time
To erase the stain
And it's never been the same

Any city
A girl turns 17, she goes to a party
She and her girls are drinking bacardi
Ever since she walked through the door
All the guys have been flexing
And tryin' to score but she's a good girl
So she won't have none of that
She takes another sip
But has no clue of the spike from the
G to the H to the B
She wakes up on the morning
Bruised and raped in the street

What's going on? What's going on?
Ready or not (not)
The world moves on and on and on
Yo, what's going on?

There's nothing much to me
I'm simple like you are, ordinary
(simple like you are) my tired eyes can see
That time may fly and what's left is
Meant to be i'm looking out
And you're looking in
It's taken more than time
To erase the stain
And it's never been the same
(In a small town)
A kid that you know goes to school
He's really kinda shy and not that cool
He knows what it's like to
Look in from the outside
Inside, he wants someone to confide
Everyone's busy and no one's got the time
He takes his dad's gun and says
"This is how I'll shine" boom boom boom
And the kids fall down on the ground
Dumbfound (dumbfound)

What's going on? What's going on?
Ready or not (not)
The world moves on and on and on
(and on and on and on) yo, what's going on?

There's nothing much to me
I'm simple like you are, ordinary
(simple like you are) my tired eyes can see
That time may fly and what's left is
Meant to be i'm looking out
And you're looking in
It's taken more than time
To erase the stain
And it's never been the same

I'm looking out and you're looking in
It's taken more than time
To erase the stain
And it's never been the same
