There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there,
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
What a field-day for the heat,
A thousand people in the street,
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Paranoia strikes deep,
Into your life it will creep,
It starts when you're always afraid,
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound?
