Something's 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
Battle lines bein' drawn Nobody's right if everyone's wrong People speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind
Yeah, stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Stop, hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down
What a field day for the heat Ten thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, \"Hooray for our side!\"
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/for-what-its-worth-lyrics-lou-rawls.html ] I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down 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 Step out of line, the man's coming to take you away
Yeah, stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Stop, hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going You better stop
