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

Children, what's that sound?

Everybody look, what's going down?

Nobody's right if everybody's wrong

Young people speaking their minds

Getting so much resistance from behind
[Chorus]

It's time we stop

Hey, what's that sound?
G F
Everybody look, what's going down?
[Instrumental]

Singing songs and carrying signs
