For What It's Worth

There's something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me I got to beware

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
Are getting so much resistance from behind

It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

What a field day for the heat (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
A thousand people in the street (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Singing songs and a-carrying signs (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Mostly say, "Hooray for our side" (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

It's time we stopped
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
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
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
We better stop
Now, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Stop
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
What's going down
What's going down
So you better stop
You better watch
You better listen
You better stop
Children
What's that sound?
What's that sound?
What's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

Something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me I got to beware

It's time we stop
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Stop
