Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's something happening here
But what it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
A-telling me, I got to beware
[Chorus]
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
[Verse 2]
There's battle lines being drawn
And nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Are gettin’ so much resistance from behind
[Chorus]
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
[Verse 3]
What a field day for the heat (Ooo-ooo-ooo)
A thousand people in the street (Ooo-ooo-ooo)
Singing songs and a-carryin’ signs (Ooo-ooo-ooo)
Mostly say, "Hooray for our side" (Ooo-ooo-ooo)
[Chorus]
It's time we stopped
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
[Verse 4]
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the man come and take you away
[Chorus]
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going
We better stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going
We better stop
Now, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going
We better stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down

For those who haven't experienced it before:
1) Put in your headphones
2) Go to 1:50
3) Listen and enjoy to around 2:15
4) Take out your right headphone and repeat steps 2 & 3
5) Put the right headphone back in, take out your left headphone and repeat steps 2 & 3
6) Repeat steps 1, 2 & 3
Voilá, consciousness expanded!

All beautiful things are simple.
This song is modest, unassuming, minimalist down to the bone, yet it is profound.
Jarring, even.
You can say a lot, by saying little.
This one doesnt go in the time capsule......IT IS the time capsule.
It will play as long as mankind has a soul.

I'm 70 years old and remember when this song first came out. It is still applicable now as it was then. Sad.

Glad you made it this far, lone rider. Lets hope the world you gave us young folk won't be wasted.
@lardinal2413
wait if you are 70 now then you would be 18 in 1969 and you would have been drafted since the draft lasted until 1973 so did you serve in vietnam back then?
@jayleeper1512
It is 1966, I am 14 working cleaning construction sites and this is pounding out of my new transistor radio. Still feels the same.

It Is Amazing,, how just three notes in, is all it takes to wake up a lost sector of memory.
