Lyrics
Tell Me Why?
Can anybody tell me why...or what is going on?
They say that it's the sign of the times...
I want to know, what are we doing wrong
How come we're not in touch with our children, because they are out of reach.
Does anybody have a master plan or maybe a simple remedy.
Can you tell me why we're in a war that's based on lies.
When we know the truth, that war is never the answer.
Can you tell me why there's something wrong with the food we eat.
When it's giving everybody cancer.
What a mess, there's so much stress.
We keep going through the same old things.
When will we learn to put people first.
Everybody it's time to make a change.
Tell me why...tell me why...can you tell me why?
