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 he best friend are drinking bacardi
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?
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
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?
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
