Lyrics

There's something happening here
But 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
You better 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 saying, "Hooray for our side"
You better stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's going
You better stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's going down?
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It hurts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the men come and take you away
You better stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's going
You better stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's going
You better stop, people, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's going
You better stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look, what's going down?
There's something happening in here
