People Are People lyrics

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

So we`re different colors,
And we`re different creeds,
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?,
I can`t understand,
What makes a man,
Hate another man,
Help me understand,
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,
Help me understand,
Help me understand

Now you`re punching,
And you`re kicking,
And you`re shouting at me,
And 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 (head to your fists),
I can`t understand what makes a man,
Hate another man?,
Help me understand,
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

I can`t understand,
What makes a man,
Hate another man?,
Help me understand,
I can`t understand,
What makes a man,
Hate another man?,
Help me understand,
I can`t understand,
What makes a man,
Hate another man?,
I can`t understand (people are people),
What makes a man (why should it be?),
Hate another man?,
Help me understand
