lyrics

AND NOW THESE ARE THE DAYS – THAT YOU SET UP FOR US
YOU SAID THERE WAS TIME – AND YOU HAD IT SUSSED
THESE ARE THE THINGS – THAT TOOK US ALONG
HAVE IT ALL NOW – UNTIL IT’S ALL GONE
YOU POISONED OUR OCEANS – YOU CUT DOWN THE TREES
YOU KILL OFF THE INSECTS – YOU KILL OFF THE BEES
AND ALL THAT YOU SAY – BUT THE DEEDS NEVER DONE
YOU SOLD US ALL DREAMS –YOU STRUNG US ALONG – ALONG – ALONG – ALONG - ALONG

IT’S THE THINGS THAT YOU SAY – BUT YOU NEVER DO
ALL OF IT LIES – AND NONE OF IT TRUE
THE CLOCK IS NOW TICKING – THE COUNTDOWN BEGUN
TIME IS THE ESSENCE – TO GET IT ALL DONE
THESE ARE THE DAYS – THAT IT’S ALL GOT TO CHANGE
THIS IS THE TIME – WE GOT TO RE-ARRANGE
FOR ALL OF OUR CHILDREN - AND ALL OF THEIRS TOO
REVERSING THE DAMAGE - IS WHAT - WE HAVE - TO DO

AND NOW THESE ARE THE DAYS – THAT YOU SET UP FOR US
YOU SAID THERE WAS TIME – AND YOU HAD IT SUSSED
SPREADING THE PLASTIC –AROUND THE GLOBE
SPREADING THIS CANCER – ALL AROUND THE WORLD
THIS IS THE TIME – WE HAVE TO END THIS WASTE
THIS IS THE TIME – THAT WE ALL HAVE TO FACE
FOR ALL OF OUR CHILDREN - AND ALL OF THEIRS TOO
TO DO FOR THE MANY – AND NEVER FOR THE FEW…………………………….
