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.

Refrão
its time we stop, hey, what's that sound?
everybody look what's going down.

paranoia strikes deep.
into your heart it will creep.
it happens when you're always afraid.
step out of line and the man comes to take you away.

stop, hey, what's that sound? everybody look what's going down.
its time we stop, hey, what's that sound?
everybody look what's going down.
stop, hey, what's that sound?
everybody look what's going down.
