For What Its Worth lyrics

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
