Jewel - What’s Going On lyrics

[Verse 1] Mother, mother There's 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, ooh [Verse 2] Father, father We know that we don't need We don't need to escalate 'Cause war is not the answer 'Cause only love, only love, only love can conquer hate You know we've got to find a way To bring some loving here today, ooh [Chorus] Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Come on now, talk to me Can't you see what's going on? Tell me whats going on? Tell me whats going on? Can't you tell me, tell me what's going on? Oh [Verse 3] Mother, mother Everybody, everybody thinks we're wrong Oh, but who are they to judge us Simply because our, our hair is long? Oh, you know we've got to find a way To bring some understanding here today, oh-oh [Chorus] Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality 'Cause that man can't breathe Come on, just talk to me Can't you see what's going on? Tell me whats going on? Someone tell me whats going on? Can't we see, can't we see whats going on? Ooh-ooh
