Artist: 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

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 were 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'd 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, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look
what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look
what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look
what's going down
