Seems like everybody´s got a problem
No one knows how
But, we all want to solve ´em
You could give a dime
Give a hand
Or give a shit
Or could look away and never deal with it

For example
This girl is pretty fly for a white gal
All the guys want her even though she´s a juvenite
She´s really kinda sad and just don´t care
´Cause the only one she wants is her best friend Claire

What´s going on?
What´s going on?
Ready or not - NOT
The world moves on and on and on
Yo, what´s going on?

There´s nothing much to me
I´m simple like you are, ordinary
My tired eyes can see
That time may fly
And what´s left is
Meant to be
I´m looking out
You´re looking in
It´s taken more then time
To erase the stain
And it´s never been the same

Any city
A girl turns 17, goes to a party
She and her girls are drinkin barcardi
Ever since she walked through the door
All the guys have been scoping and flexing tryin´ to score
But she´s a good girl
So she won´t have none of that
She takes another sip
But has no clue of the spike from the G to the H to the B
She wakes up in the morning
bruised and raped in the street

What´s going on?
What´s going on?
Ready or not - NOT
The world moves on and on and on
Yo, what´s going on?

For example
This girl is pretty fly for a white gal

Your town
A kid that you know goes to school
He´s really kinda shy and not that cool
He knows what it´s like to look in from the outside
Inside, he just wants someone to confide
But everyone´s busy and no one´s got the time
He takes his dad´s gun and says
"This is how I´ll shine"
Boom, boom, boom
And the kids fall down
On the ground
Dumbfound (dumbfound)

What´s going on?
What´s going on?
Ready or not - NOT
The world moves on and on and on
Yo, what´s going on?
