For What It's Worth

There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I've 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 speaking their minds Gettin' so much resistance from behind I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin' down What a field-day for the heat A thousand people in the street A-singing songs and a-carryin' signs Mostly say, "hooray for our side" I think it's s time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin' down 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 Better stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down You better stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down You better stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down You 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 --- For What It's Worth - Miriam Makeba
