Lyrics

John Fitzgerald Kennedy, do solemnly swear
I, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, do solemnly swear
That you will faithfully execute the
Office of President of the United States
That I will faithfully execute the
Office of President of the United States
There's something happening here
And what it is ain't exactly clear
But there's a man with a gun over there
And he's telling me that I've got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country
Can do for you, ask what you can do for your country
The battle lines have been drawn
Nobody's right when everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
But carrying so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do
For you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man
For the freedom of man
For the freedom of man
Citizens of the world
What a field day for the beasts
One thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Some that say, "Hooray for our side"
Oh Lord, I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
And let every other power know that this hemisphere
In its dream remains the master of its own house
Ask not what your country can do for you
Ask what you can do for your country
Paranoia strikes deep
It cuts into your soul when you sleep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man comes and takes you away
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down
Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe
Alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of
Americans, born in this century, tempered by war
Disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient
Heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow
Undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always
Been committed, and boasts of being the first to defend
Before the God-powered destruction unleashed by science
Engulfs all humanity in planned or accidental self-destruction
