Doctor, you ain't got a pill
For whatever's making this world ill
You can't get forgiveness at the store
And peace, it's a politician's war

You won't find no resolution in the bottom of a bottle
In the stars or Aristotle
The only answer to the problem is...

People loving people
That's the enemy of everything's that's evil
Ain't no quick fix at the end of a needle
It's just people loving people
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Words aren't what they seem to be
Talk is cheap but lies are free
We fear what we don't understand
And we've been scared since time began

All the colors and the cultures circle 'round us on a spindle
It's a complicated riddle
The solution is so simple...

It's people loving people
That's the enemy of everything's that's evil
Ain't no quick fix at the end of a needle
It's just people loving people
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoh

You can pawn it off on kings and queens and those behind the curtain
Say what can make a difference in a world so full of hurting
But I believe the remedy starts right here with you and me

People loving people
That's the enemy of everything's that's evil
Ain't no quick fix at the end of a needle
It's just people loving people
It's just people loving people
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
It's just people loving people
