There's somethin' happenin' here What it is ain't exactly clear.
There's a man with a gun over there A-tellin' 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 bein' drawn Nobody's right if everybody's wrong.
Young people speakin' their minds A-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
Singin' songs and a-carryin' signs Mostly sayin' hooray for our side.
Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep.
It starts when you're always afraid Step out of line, the men come and take you away.
You better stop Hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's goin'...
You better stop Hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's goin'...
You better stop Now, what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin'...
You better stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's goin'...
