there's something happinin here
what it is aint exactly clear
theres a man with a gun over there
tellin me i got to beware
i think it's time we stop, children
what's that sound
everybody look what's goin down
there's battle lines being drawn
nobody's right if everybody's wrong
young people speakin there minds
getting so much resistance far behind
it's time we stop,
hey what's that sound
everybody look what's goin down
what a field day for the heat
a thousand people in the street
singing songs that they're carrying signs
mostly say hurray for our side
it's time we stop,
hey what's that sound
everybody look what's goin down
Par-a-noiastrikes deep
into your life it will creep
it starts when your always afraid
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 x4
