Stevie Wonder - Each Other's Throat lyrics

We are supposed to be sisters and brothers But all we do is constantly dog one another We are supposed to act as each other's cover But we keep at each other's throat Each other's throat Each other's throat Yo, it ain't no joke We're at each other's throat - Aowl, Aowl We are supposed to spread love and not evil But we've been acting more like heathens than people Treating our fellow-man far worse than illegal Cause we keep at each other's throat Each other's throat Each other's throat Yo, it ain't no joke We're at each other's throat - Aowl, Aowl Ut oh, 11 o'clock pm and here's the news Another fatality caused by a family feud Charged, tried, sentenced by the jury of a brother's gun Made sister's fiancee's wedding never to be sung He didn't like the way he treated the girl So the boy played God, pow, he ended his world He made a plea for temporary insanity But left his sister insane permanently This ain't new, this stuff happens everyday Somebody doesn't like someone so they blow them away Too fast for reason, too quick to negotiate Regret and sorrow happens a split second too late Jealousy for power, greed for possession Selfishness so you give someone a faked out impression Speaking of which I'm truly not impressed So if seeing is believin'- I don't wanna see the mess Heartless are we on the straight with no chaser As if for negativity we got the vapors Know as I love me so I do love my neighbor Cause we are too busy at each other's throat Each other's throat Each other's throat Yo, it ain't no joke We're at each other's throat -Aowl, Aowl [Repeat]
