Brother, please don't turn your back on me

I was once just like you

But I've fallen through the cracks of society

Why can't anyone just lend a hand?

Doesn't anybody care? Doesn't someone understand?

We should be ashamed

Because we lay the blame

Not on ourselves

But on this day and age

What's wrong with everybody?

Why can't anybody get along?

Well, I think we've got a problem

We've got to help each other out

Or we'll never figure out

What's wrong with everybody

Five o'clock, another traffic jam

All lanes merge to one

And it seems that no one gives a damn

Why can't we just let each other in?

But we cut each other off

And we just keep on drivin'

We should be ashamed

Because we lay the blame

Not on ourselves

But on this day and age

What's wrong with everybody?

Why can't anybody get along?

Well, I think we've got a problem

We've got to help each other out

Or we'll never figure out

What's wrong with everybody

Why can't everybody live in peace?

Well, we've got to pull together

And put an end to this insanity

Why can't everyone just lend a hand?

Doesn't anybody care? Doesn't someone give a damn?

What's wrong with everybody?

Why can't anybody get along?

Well, I think we've got a problem

We've got to help each other out

Or we'll never figure out

What's wrong with everybody
