Stop, Listen

there’s something happening here

look around you it’s coming clear

we see young people everywhere

tellin’ us that we need to care

it’s time to stop // listen, what’s that sound?

listen to the young folks gather round

there’s so much change in the air

sometimes more than we think we can bear

young people speaking their minds

building so much resistance all the time

it’s time we stop // listen, what’s that sound?

listen to the young folks, gather round

what a time for us to meet

all the young people in the street

singin’ songs and carrying signs

we need to be there at their side

it’s time we stop // listen, what’s that sound?

listen to the young folks, gather round

so many issues strike deep

so many promises to keep

we want to let young people know we are here

to back you up in your vision so clear

we better stop // listen, what’s that sound?

listen to the young folks, gather round

stop, listen, what’s that sound?

listen to the young folks, gather round
