For What It's Worth

There's something happening here

What it is ain't exactly clear

There's a man with a gun over there

Telling me I've 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, children

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 carrying signs

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)

Mostly saying, "Hooray for our side"

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)

I think it's time we stop, children

What's that sound?

Everybody look what's going down

Paranoia strikes deep

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)

Into your life it will creep

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)

It starts when you're always afraid

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)

Step out of line

(Ooh, ooh-ooh)

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, 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

Stop, hey

What's that sound?

Everybody look what's going down

We better stop, hey
