Whats going on
Oh, mother, mother
Theres too many of you crying
Oh, brother, brother,brother
Theres for too many of you dying
(too many dying)
You know weve got to find a way
To bring some loving here today yeah
Father,father
Theres no need to escalate (no need, theres no need, no need)
You see war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know weve got to find a way
To bring some love and understanding here today
Picket lines, with picket signs
Dont punish me with brutality
Come on come on talk to me
So you can see whats going on
Tell me whats going on
Ill tell you whats going on
Mercy mercy me (ecology)
Oh mercy, mercy me
Oh things aint what used to be
Oh where did all the blue skies go?
Poison is the air that blows from the north and south
Poison underground and in the sky
Birds and animals who live nearby bye bye die
I want you

Mercy, Mercy Me (live)
Oo oo aa mercy mercy me
Ah things aint' what they used to be
Where did all the blue skies go
Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east.
Oo mercy mercy me
Ah things ain't what they used to be
Oil wasted on the ocean and up on our sea
Fish full of mercury.
Ah oh mercy mercy me
Ah things ain't what they used to be
Radiation underground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live near by are dying.
Oh mercy mercy me
Ah things ain't what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land
How much more abuse from man can she stand

Family Man
Written by lindsey buckingham and richard dashut.
Walk down this road
When the road gets rough
I fall down
I get up
I am what I am...
A family man
I am what I am...
A family man
Mother... father... brother...
Mother... father... brother...
Walk down this road
In the cool of the night
Dont know whats wrong
But I do know whats right
I am what I am...
A family man
I am what I am...

Mother... father... brother...
Mother... father... brother...

Hands & Knees
You see me walking away
What more could I say than sorry
I failed by all your complaints
You pushed a life change but its not me
And filthy hands lay apon my chest
Lay upon my sin, but I do it for green
And in your mind you are blind
And your back turn so fine
Where were you when I needed you most
So mother so father
Im on my hands and knees
So mother so father
Im scrounging for whats left of me
My self-indulgence to blame
For all of the shame in the family
You dont know what its like
How I feel how I cry
How I hate the way I hate my life
So mother so father Im on my hands and knees
So mother so father
Im scrounging for whats left of me
Pues madre, y padre
Esta vida no quiero vivir
So mother so father
I dont want to live this way
So mother so father
Im scrounging for whats left of me
So mother so father
I dont want to live this way
So mother so father
Im scrounging for whats left of me

Whats My Name
Take my name, I dont need it
Nothing stays the same anyway
Take my fame, I cant use it
My girlfriend calls me lame, the game was over yesterday
Tell me, whats my name?
Tell me, whats my name?
Whats my name?
Take this bass, I cant play it
It only makes me wish 4 the way it used 2 be
U could slap my face, but I got 2 say it
U never would have drank my coffee if I had never served u cream
Now tell me, whats your name?
Tell me, whats your name?
Whats your name?

Do u dream in color or do u discriminate?
Do u love others, do u love or do u hate?
Do u worship fire or do u worship a dove?
Do u live a liar or do u live 4 love?
Whats your name?
Whats my name?

Whats Up With That
Well how much blues do you use
Before you use it up
And how many fools take a chance
Before they hit it lucky
Tomorrows wanna be the day
It never seem to work that way
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Everybody want a little more
Than they think they got
But what you might think it is,
Might really not be, baby
Pick it up or leave it lay
It always seem to slip away
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Now how high will a river get
Before it overflows
And how long is the hole to china
It dont really know
This is what its all about
Theres always gonna be a doubt
Whats up with that

Whats up with that

Whats Her Name Today?
Whats her name today?
Whats her name today?
She could be anyone
I might have known youd leave her crying
Whats her name again?
You should be ashamed
How could you treat her so unspeakably?
Or did you think she was a different girl?
For as the radio played in the bedroom wall
What was that name you called her?
Was she the one who took away your pride
And your reason?
Oh, why did you decide that
Youd punish any girl you meet
To try and make that feeling go away?
Whats her name today?
Whats her name today?
Is her hair hanging down?
Or maybe its fixed with a ribbon
Are her eyes still blue?
Should she trust in you?
Because its a lonely world
She wants to believe for a while in all the things you say
But as the radio played in the bedroom wall
What was that name you called her?
Isnt her smile reminiscent of someone else?
Well, is it or isnt it?
Oh, why did you decide that
Youd punish any girl you meet
To try and make that feeling go away?
Whats her name today?
Is she going to stay
So you can ruin her?
And soon shell be twisted in chiffon
Dress her like a doll
String her like a pearl
She hears peals of bells, but its hard to tell
Now that shes hung up like a chandelier
Whats her name?
Whats her name?
Whats her name today?
