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

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

To bring some loving here today

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Talk to me so we can see

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

Mother mother

Everybody says that we're wrong

Oh who are they to judge us

Simply because our hair is long

You know we've got to find a way

To bring some loving here today

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Talk to me

So we can see

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on

What's going on
