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 

There’s battle lines being drawn 
Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong 
Young people speaking their minds 
Getting so much resistance from behind 

What a field-day for the heat 
A thousand people in the street 
Singing songs and carrying signs 
Mostly say, hooray for our side 

Paranoia 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 

I think it’s time we stop, children, what’s that sound 

Everybody look what’s going down 

-Buffalo Springfield
