no time like now

they're pullin' all the trees down
and the earth can't breath now
the waters are risin'
and soon we'll all be drowned

there ain't no time
there ain't no time
there ain't no time
no time like now

the rich are gettin' richer
the poor are gettin' poorer
we've all turned so numb
i think we've lost our minds

chorus

they're carrying swords in my street
i can hear people cryin' in their sleep
feel the tanks rumble at my feet
but i ain't comin' down

chorus

they say the enemy is evil
they say the enemy is ruthless
but don't you see we are the enemy
and we're all so blind

chorus

leaders hide behind their money and lies
send all the the young kids to die
you better run you better hide
you may be next in line

chorus

professors talk in words all tangled
they turn the bloody into wine
but do they understand the look of fear in a young childs eye
as he watches his mother killed
as he watches his father killed
as he watches his house blown down
by a monster in the sky

chorus

go and get your baby baptised
watch the kid become hypnotized
hey lady don't you realize
what's goin' down

chorus

Ranks right up there with Eve of Destruction, as far as I'm concerned. Kind of a similar style, too...

Great song. Period.
