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 bewareI think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downBattle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everyone's wrong
People speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behindYeah, stop children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downWhat a field-day for the heat
Ten thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our sideI think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downParanoia 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 awayStop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downYou better stop!
Stop
You better stop!
Stop
You better stop!
