Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's something happening here But what it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there A-telling me I got to beware [Chorus] I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down [Verse 2] There's battle lines being drawn And nobody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds Are gettin' so much resistance from behind [Chorus] It's time we stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down [Verse 3] What a field day for the heat (Ooh-ooh-ooh) A thousand people in the street (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Singing songs and a-carryin' signs (Ooh-ooh-ooh) Mostly say, "Hooray for our side" (Ooh-ooh-ooh) [Chorus] It's time we stopped Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] We better stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going We better stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going We better stop Now, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going We better stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down
