People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
So we're different colours and we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me though I've done nothing wrong
I've never even met you so what could I have done
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Oh oh oh
Let me understand
Let me understand
Let me understand
Now you're punching and you're kicking and you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced but I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel from your head to your fists
Head to your fists
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Why should it be
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Why should it be
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people
Understand
What makes a man
Why should it be
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people
Understand
What makes a man
