Lyrics

Mother, mother, there's too many of you crying Brother, brother, brother, there's far too many of you dying You know we'ver got to find a way To bring some lovin' here today, hey Father, father, we don't need to escalate War is not the answer, for only love can conquer hate You know we've got to find a way To bring some lovin' here today Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Talk to me, so you can see Oh what's going on, what's going on Yeah, what's going on, ah, what's going on Ahhh... Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong Ah but who are they to judge us Simply 'cos our hair is long Ah you know we'ver got to find a way To brind some understanding here today Picket lines and picket signs Don't punish me with brutality Talk to me, so you can see What's going on, yeah what's going on Tell me what's going on, I'll tell you what's going on
