Cyndi Lauper What's Going On Lyrics

Mother
mother
there's too many of you crying.
Brother
brother
brother
there's far too many of you dring.
You know we've got to find a way to bring back love here today.

Father
father
there's no need to escalate.
You see
war is not the answer

For only love can conquer hate.
You know we've got to find a way
To bring back loving here today.
Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality.
Just talk to me
so you can see what's going on

What's going on
what's going on
what's going on.

Mother
mother
ev'rybody thinks we're wrong.
Oh
who are they to judge us
Just becouse our hair is long?
You know we've got to find a way
To bring back unaerstanding today.

You know we've got to find a way
to bring back some loving here today.
Picket lines and picket signs

don't punish me with brutality.
Now
iust talk to me
so you can see what's going on

What's going on
what's going on

I tell you what's going on.
