People Are People
Dope
American Apathy (2005)

Can't you understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully
People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully

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 I could I have done

Can't you understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully
People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully

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)

Can't you understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully
People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully

Can't you understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

Can't you understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully
People are people
So why should it be
That you and I should get along awfully

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
