Dum dum du du dum du du dum
Hu hu hu hua yeah yeah yeah yeah oh oh
Why are we looking down
On our sisters and brothers?
Isn't love, all that we got? (why)
Don't we know everyone's
Got a father and mother?
The day we know we're all the same
Together we can make that change
Look around there are too many of us crying
And not enough love to go around (to go around)
What a waste, another day
Another good one dying
But I know that the world will change
The day we know we're all the same
Oh why
Why can't we just get along?
(Oh love) If loving one another's wrong
(Just tell me) Then how are we supposed to
Get close to each other?
We gotta make that change
Why can't we just get along?
Oh oh yeah yeah
What a waste it would be to deny somebody
Of a chance to be theirselves
(What a waste) What a waste it would be
If we hurt for nothing
But I know that the world can change
The day we know we're all the same
(Why can't we just get along?) why can't we just get along?

We don't have to go (go that way) that way
