People Are People - Live in Basel

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

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

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

Help me understand
