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
Catching so much resistance from behind

It's time we stop
Children, 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

Think 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
You step out of line
The man will come and take you away

Time we 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
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going

You better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

What's that sound?
What's going down
For what it's worth?
What's that sound?
Going down
For what it's worth?

What's that sound?
Going down
For what it's worth?
What's that sound?
Going down
For what it's worth?

What's that sound?
Going down
