What's goin' on

What's goin' on Lyrics

Does anybody realize what's goin' on?
Take a look around and you will see that we're destroying ourselves.
Does everybody out there have a chip on their shoulders
Or is it that we've got nothing, nothing better to do?

Beatings of five to one wasn't enough.
Now we're using everything from chains
To knives and guns.
How much more of this do we have to take
Before we realize it's such a senseless waste?

Does anybody out there hear the cries
Of mothers who have lost their children
To your foolish games?
When are you gonna realize
That it's all just, just a senseless waste?

You think that it's just a game?
Well, I've got one thing to explain.
Someday your luck will fail.
Then you'll wind up dead or jailed.
