It's Time!


There’s a new occupation showin how to make a buck or two
There are very old seeds for sowin forgotten crops tried and true
There’s an old faithful slogan that’s restored the silent few
We’ve served the corporate system in spite of hunger and our thirst
It’s time now, Gawdamit, to put We the People first

There’s an old breed of warrior stormin as an army into light
And the children will be born in time to change the wrong to right
It is called a green economy and we have it in our sight
They fooled with Mother Nature, and the bubble it has burst
It’s time now, Gawdamit, to put We the People first

And if you like celebratin, then throw back your head and shout
For what we are creatin is what unity is all about
As a family of six billion strong there really is no doubt
Say no to tanks and missiles, the oil fields, they are cursed
It’s time now, Gawdamit, to put We the People first

Every morn a step is added on the path to life that’s free
You can feel the spirit rumblin ‘neath your feet, don’t you agree?
So put your arms together with your neighbor, it’s time to be
The world that we’ve been promised, the best, not the worst
It’s time now, Gawdamit, to put We the People first
