Lyrics

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 lovin' here today, eheh

Father, father
We don't 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 some lovin' here today, oh oh oh

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

In the mean time
Right on, baby
Right on brother
Right on babe

Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Oh oh oh

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

C'mon 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, ooh ooo ooo ooo

Right on baby

Right on baby

============

What's happening brother?

We want to know.

Listen to Sir Marvin Gaye for the REAL DEAL.
He wrote these lyrics back in 1971 - they are just as if they are today.
Love - peace - brutality - trigger happy policemen - save the babies - picket signs - lack of employment - tightness of money - and on and on.
Too many ailments not being addressed and reaching a BOILING POINT.

He speaks to many of the ailments of today in the public square.
