For What It's Worth

Lyrics

Something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware It's time to stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down There's battle lines being drawn Everybody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind Time to stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down … What a field-day for the heat A thousand people in the streets Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray for our side It's time to stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, 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, and they come and take you away It's time to stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop
