Song lyrics

[Chorus x2]
People are people
So why should it be
You and 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'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...

[Chorus x2]

Help me understand...

Now you're punching,
And 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...

[Chorus x2]

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man,
Help me understand...
