For What It's Worth

For What It's Worth lyrics

There's something 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, listen, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downThere's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behindI think it's time we stop, listen, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downWhat a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our sideNow you better stop, listen, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going downParanoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
Now you better stop, listen, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Now stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going...
You better stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
