lyrics

we’re just people
yeah all of us are just people
and nobody’s really evil
they just don’t care about other people
but all of us are just people
we all wanna be happy people
but some of us hurt other people
it doesn’t really make us evil no

it’s natural for an animal like us
with all our flaws
to use our claws
it’s how it works
we’re doing what animals do
so what’s the fuss

when we’re just people
yeah all of us are just people
though some of us hurt other people
but that doesn’t make us evil no

I got myself to answer to
the same is true for all of you
that’s how it works on planet Earth
you help yourself or someone else
helps themselves

any day that the cat’s away
we mice are gonna play
it’s how we are
it’s in our brains
we’re doing what animals do
so what’s the fuss

when we’re just people
yeah all of us are just people
and nobody’s really evil
they just don’t care about other people
but all of us are just people
we all wanna be happy people
but some of us hurt other people
it doesn’t really make us evil no
