Att. Old rockers, help me remember
The name of the song and band that had the lyrics;

A thousand people in the streets
With children at their feet
Singing songs and carrying signs
Getting so much resistance from behind
Stop children what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down

Does anyone remember?

For What It's Worth: Title

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.


There's battle lines being drawn.
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong.
Young people speaking their minds,
Getting so much resistance from behind.
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down.


What a field day for the heat.
A thousand people in the street,
Singing songs and carrying signs,
Mostly say, “Hooray for our side.”
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down.


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.

3. Thanks
That song has been in my head for most of the day but i just could not remember it correctly
My memory is not what it use to be.

7. Mr. Soul is more appropos
:^{)

Mr. Soul

Oh, hello, Mr. Soul, I dropped by to pick up a reason
For the thought that I caught that my head is the event of the season
Why in crowds just a trace of my face could seem so pleasin'
I'll cop out to the change, but a stranger is putting the tease on

I was down on a frown when the messenger brought me a letter
I was razed by the phrase of a fan who said I upset her
Any girl in the world could have easily known me better
She said you're strange, but don't change, and I let her

In a while, will the smile on my face turn to plaster?
Stick around while a clown who is sick does the trick of disaster
For the race of my head and my face is moving much faster
Is it strange I should change, I don't know, why don't you ask her
Is it strange I should change, I don't know, why don't you ask her
Is it strange I should change, I don't know, why don't you ask her
Is it strange I should change, I don't know, why don't you ask her
