Lyrics: People Are People (Hot Tracks)

People are people so why should it be
You & I should get along so awfully
So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me Though I've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could I have done
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people so why should it be
You & I should get along so awfully
Help me understand
Now you're punching & you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
