Lyrics to What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes
25 years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination
I realised quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes when I’m lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what’s in my head
And I, I am feeling, a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and get real high and I
Scream from the top of my lungs What’s Going On?
And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
And I try, oh my God do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my God do I pray,
I pray every single day for revolution
And so I cry sometimes when I’m lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what’s in my head
And I, I am feeling, a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and get real high and I
Scream from the top of my lungs What’s Going On?
And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
