Everybody look what's going
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
It starts when you're always afraid
I think it's time we stop
Everybody look what's going down
Battle lines bein' drawn
Singing songs and carrying signs
Telling me I got to beware
You better stop
Children, what's that sound?
People speaking their minds
Stop
Yeah, stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Yeah, stop, children, what's that sound?
What a field day for the heat
Everybody look what's going down
Step out of line, the man's coming to take you away
Into your life it will creep
Everybody look what's going down
There's a man with a gun over there
Ten thousand people in the street
Everybody look what's going down
You better stop
Everybody look what's going down
Getting so much resistance from behind
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
Paranoia strikes deep
Stop
Stop, hey, what's that sound?
Nobody's right if everyone's wrong
Mostly say, "Hooray for our side!"
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
I think it's time we stop
