People, People - Dave Matthews Band

seven tumbling oceans surround the ground that I dance upon 
black and white and the rainbow, five colors in my eyes 
seven tumbling oceans surround the ground that I dance upon 
black and white and the rainbow, five colors in my eyes 

people, people 
what are we doing here 
oh, people 
what have we done with things 
people, people 
what are we doing here 
oh, people 
what have we done with things 

when we fight over the oceans? 
when we fight over the skies, and why? 
when we fight over our borders? 
then we, our brothers and sisters deny 

tell me why is it so cold in here 

seven tumbling oceans surround the ground that I dance upon 
black and white and the rainbow, five colors in my eyes 
when we stand in the mother's arms, no feeling of emptiness 
when we stand in the mother's hands, we can see that 
when we fight over the oceans 
when we fight over the skies, and why 
when we fight over our borders 
then we, our brothers and sisters deny 

tell me why do we do it 
why do we do it? oh, . . .
