People Are People lyrics

Can't you understand

What makes a man

Hate another man

Help me understand

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

So now there's different colors

And there's different breeds

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 I could I have done

Can't you understand

What makes a man

Hate another man

Help me understand

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

So now you're punching

And you're kicking

And you're screaming at me

You're relying on my common decency

I know it hasn't surfaced

But I'm sure it exists

It just takes a while to travel

From my head to my fist (boom)

Can't you understand

What makes a man

Hate another man

Help me understand

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

Can't you understand

What makes a man

Hate another man

Help me understand

Can't you understand

What makes a man

Hate another man

Help me understand

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

People are people

So why should it be

That you and I should get along awfully

People are people

Why should it be that we get along so awfully

(Can't you understand) why should it be

Can't we get along, 'cause people are people

(Can't you understand) why should it be

Can't we get along, 'cause people are people

(Can't you understand) why should it be

Can't we get along, 'cause people are people
