People Are People

Lyrics

[Pre-Chorus] Can't you understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand [Chorus] People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? (Oh, oh, oh) [Verse 1] 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 could I have done? (Done, done, done) [Pre-Chorus] Can't you understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand [Chorus] People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? (Oh, oh, oh) [Verse 2] 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) [Pre-Chorus] Can't you understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand [Chorus] People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? (People are people) Why should it be that we get along so awfully? Why should it be that we get along so awfully? (Oh, oh, oh) [Pre-Chorus] Can't you understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand (Oh, oh, oh) Can't you understand What makes a man (Oh, oh, oh) Hate another man Help me understand [Chorus] People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? People are people, so why should it be You and I should get along so awfully? [Post-Chorus] (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
