We
H.H.C Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That this is not the way of the civilized
Fussing and fighting over stuff
It makes me wonder, just how much will be enough
I hope that these words get through to you
So you can say and feel the same thing too
I hope that these words get through to you
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
With all the greed seen from the start
It grieves me dearly, so deep within my heart
The selfish don't care what they do
But, don't they realize, you can't take it with you
I hope that these words get through to you
So you can say and feel the same thing too
I hope that these words get through to you
So you can say and feel the same thing too
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
I hope that these words get through to you
So you can say and feel the same thing too
I hope that these words get through to you
So you can say and feel the same thing too
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
We've gotta do better (We don't need)
You and I (no more greed)
We've gotta do better (Let's help each other)
Until we get by (Like sister and brother yeah)
We've gotta do better, you and I
We've gotta do better, until we get by
The lyrics of H.H.C's "We in 2-3" are a powerful call to action to recognize and address the issues of greed and selfishness that have taken over modern society. The song stresses the importance of understanding that the way we currently live is not civilized and that we need to do better, until we get by. It highlights how people are so caught up in material possessions that they have forgotten about the importance of empathy and compassion towards one another, and the need to prioritize helping each other in order to make the world a better place.
The lines "have we forgotten or not realized?" and "fussing and fighting over stuff, it makes me wonder just how much will be enough" are particularly poignant, emphasizing how the quest for material possessions has become all-consuming, leaving individuals feeling unfulfilled and unsatisfied.
The lyrics also suggest that change starts with the individual- "we've gotta do better, you and I". Individuals need to take responsibility for their own greed and strive to become better people, to form a more cohesive and compassionate society.
In conclusion, H.H.C's "We in 2-3" is an important song that highlights the issues of greed and selfishness in contemporary society. The lyrics are a call to action for people to prioritize empathy towards one another, understand that greed is not the solution, and do better to make the world a more compassionate and equal place.

Still one of my favorite songs. It’s hard to translate what it conveys into words, but I hear everything it’s saying, and none of the meaning is lost.
