What’s Goin’ On? Lyrics by Nicki Richards

Naked (To The World)

1991

Brother can you hear me?
What’s goin’ on?
Brother can you hear me?
Does anybody notice that it’s time to make a change
Time to let somebody help you unrestrict your brain
And I see you standing there with your back against the wall
It’s a sticky situation, I don’t understand at all
If someone out there hears what I’m sayin’
Today I fell down on my knees and started praying
Tell me where did we go wrong?
I just got to know
Someone tell me ‘cause my head is in a spin
CHORUS:
Tell me what’s goin’ on
Cause it’s gone on too long
Seems they never do right
And they never do wrong
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Will somebody tell me
What’s goin’ on?
Mama and the daddy tell their baby not to cry
But they can’t get out from under and it tears them up inside
And I see them standing there with their backs against the wall
It’s a sticky situation, I don’t understand at all
If someone out there hears what I’m sayin’
Time to fall down on my knees and start praying
Tell me where did we go wrong?
I just got to know
Someone tell me ‘cause my head is in a spin
CHORUS
