For What It's Worth
by Buffalo Springfield
There's something happenin' here
And what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling 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' their minds
I'm gettin' so much resistance from 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 and a-carryin' signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, 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
You step outta line, the man come and take you a-way
We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's goin' down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's goin' down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's goin' down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's goin' down
