Crystal Bowersox - For What It's Worth [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

There's something happening here
And 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
Yeah...

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

We gotta stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down, yeah
What's going down
Down, down, down...

And what a field day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say "hooray for our side"

I think it's time we stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Yeah, hmm, oh, yeah, it's on me...

Paranoia strikes deep into your life
It will surely creep
Well, it starts when you're always afraid
You step out line
The men come and tear you away

We gotta stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Now stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Now stop, children
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Now stop, hey
What's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Yeah...

What's going down
Down, down, down
Hmm, what's going down
I think it's time we stop
