Lyrics and translation
Original
One, two, three, four
Why are we looking down on our sisters and brothers?
Isn't love all that we got? Mmm
Don't we know everyone's got a father and mother?
The day we know we're all the same
Together we can make that change
Look around, there are too many of us crying
And not enough love to go 'round (oh, oh)
What a waste, another day, another good one dying
But I know that the world will change
The day we know we're all the same
Why can't we just get along?
If loving one another's wrong
Then how are we supposed to get close to each other?
We gotta make that change, yeah
Why can't we just get along?
Mm-hmm
What a waste it would be to deny somebody
Of the chance to be theirselves (mmm)
What a waste it would be if we hurt for nothing
But I know that the world can change
The day we know we're all the same
(Why can't we just get along?) Yeah
Why can't we just get along?
(Why can't we just get along?)
If loving one another's wrong
(Why can't we just get along?)
Then how are we supposed to get close to each other?
We gotta make that change, yeah
I know we could break apart
We don't have to go that way
Not today
Ooh
Yeah, why can't we just get along?
If loving one another's wrong
Then how are we supposed to get close to...? Yeah, oh, oh
(Why can't we just get along?) Ooh
Why can't we just get along?
(Why can't we just get along?) Oh, yeah
If loving one another's wrong
(Why can't we just get along?)
Then how are we supposed to get close to each other?
We gotta make that change, yeah
That change, yeah
