For What It's Worth

Buffalo Springfield

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 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 
Getting so much resistance from behind 
I think 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 say, 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 
You step out of line, the man come and take you away 
We better stop, hey, what's that sound 
Everybody look what's going down 
Stop, hey, what's that sound 
Everybody look what's going down 
Stop, now, what's that sound 
Everybody look what's going down 
Stop, children, what's that sound 
Everybody look what's going down
