What's the Matter With Us?

What’s the matter with us?
We’re so comfortable cozy
What’s the matter with us?
We’re so daydreamin' dozy
Why are we polluting our children?
There’s no future in that
Why put food in our poison?
There’s no future in that
Why do away with our woodlands?
Nothing to be gained from that
Why waste the best of our farmland?
Where’s the logic in that?
What’s the matter with us?
Oh, what’s the matter with us?
Why be warring each other?
There’s so much music to know
Why be fighting each other?
So much good food to enjoy
Why so afraid of another?
So many countries to know
Why so afraid of living when there’s
So much lovin' to do
What’s the matter with us?
I’m asking «Do you know?»
What’s the matter with us?
Uh huh
What’s the matter? We out of control
Some are givin' up and even lost their souls
Killin' one another for a little piece of gold
And why homeboy? Eh? I don’t know
Some are givin' up on mankind
Sayin' that true love is hard to find
What’s the matter? Hmm, I ask myself
I put mankind’s thoughts and pack them on the shelf
What’s the matter? Tell me, please
I’m asking God, yeah I’m down on my knees
I’m tryin' to figure out why I’ve givin' up tryin'
What’s the matter, homeboy? Can you tell me why?
What’s the matter with us?
Uh huh huh huh, what’s the matter with us?
Don’t raise a fuss, we need to come together, all of us
Yeah, what’s the matter with us?
Huh, we givin' up. As some one say:
That’s what we’re comin' to
Uh, what’s the matter with us?
Yeah, I tellin' you homeboy, we can’t give it up, no way, Raffi!
What’s the matter with us?
Oh, what’s the matter with us?
You tell me, homeboy, so much has gone to waste
Reeking of disposable, mad situation all over the place
What’s the matter with us?
You know what I mean, it ain’t the same
It’s a different kinda scene
Yeah, what’s the matter with us?
We lost our minds, someone’s givin' up on mankind!
Oh, What’s the matter with us?
With us, with us. With us, with us
What’s the matter, what’s the matter…
What’s the matter with us?
What’s the matter with us?
What’s the matter with us?
