"Stop, Hey What's That Sound?" - Jefferson Airplane

Great music, great lyrics.

Are you referring to For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield? The song about the Sunset Strip riots?
 
uh tbh i don't know but probably

its the one that goes something like, "There's a man with a gun over there, tellin me, I got to beware. Stop hey, what's that sound, everybody look what's going down."
 
that is NOT a political song! in the story of the wall, the protagonist's dad dies in WWII so the mother is super overprotective of her son. she puts all kinds of (borderline) paranoid thoughts into his head, which contribute to him putting up a 'wall' between himself & others.

"The Wall" is open to interpretation... there is no right or wrong interpretation... Thats the beauty of Pink Floyd..

But I know what you are saying... He wrote the album after a mental breakdown... But still the lyrics could mean anything, the only person who really knows is Roger Waters

That's the one.
