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 And nobody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds 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 A thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly saying, "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 Step out of line, the man come and take you away I think it's time we stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look, what's going down? Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look, what's going down? Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look, what's going down? Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look, what's going down? Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look, what's going down? Everybody look, what's going down?
