De single is afkomstig van het debuutalbum Bigger, Better, Faster, More! en kwam als derde single van het album uit.
De titel komt niet voor in het liedje zelf voor, maar wel What’s Going On?. Om verwarring te voorkomen met de hit van Marvin Gaye What’s Going On? werd daarom voor de titel What’s Up gekozen.

Songtekst
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized 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 I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say: HEY! yeah yeaaah, HEY yeah yea
I said hey, what's going on?
And I say: HEY! yeah yeaaah, HEY yeah yea
I said hey, what's going on?
ooh, ooh ooooooooooooooooh
ooh, ooh ooooooooooooooooh
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 a revolution.
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying 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 I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what's going on?
ooh, ooh ooooooooooooooooh ooooooooooooooooh
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
for a destination
