Píseň: People Are People

Interpret:
Depeche Mode
Album:
Some Great Reward
People are people so why should it be
You and i should get along so awfully


So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though i've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could i have done


I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand


People are people so why should it be
You and i should get along so awfully


Help me understand


Now you're punching and you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But i'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist


I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man


Help me understand
