Now's the Time Lyrics

A beautiful world

Where everyone is free

And no one tells you, or me, what our beliefs have to be

I see you and lend a hand

At another time, you return the favor

That's America

People working together, towards a common goal: to lift the sadness, the middle class, and the poor

Celebrating our achievements and mourning what's been lost

Together, all for the sake of each other

Playing

Outside, in the fields

We may be different, but don't be upset

I think we can get along, find some common ground to build on

I think we can find a way, to make it all work

With propaganda machines, special interests, and rushing interference

We don't have to fight over who controls the future

We all do, the Earthlings, but there's never enough for you to have

And your instincts have failed us, but you're still in control

Before you rewrite history, we'll enjoy our disparity, for you

We don't need any rights

We're slaves, and happy to do it

But one thing's for certain

Um, so now they kill our planet and leave us in the dust

And write the story however they want, because we're all dead and gone

And they move out into space

And live forever

But the people of the world begin to see the terror of the truth

That they will use their bombs, on the way out of town

But not so fast, because we're not there yet

We're here

All of us

Together!

Isn't it grand?

That now we see?

So, we'll do what we must

To free humanity

From you

The cancer

So, now's the time

Today's the day

Let's save the world!

There's no telling what tomorrow will bring

The red telephones begin to ring

All around the world
