"Do you think we have time?
Do you think we have time?
These are the days of the open hand
They will not be the last
Look around now, these are the days
Of the beggars and the choosers
This is the year of the hungry man
Whose place is in the past
Hand in hand with ignorance
And legitimate excuses
The rich declare themselves poor
And most of us are not sure
If we have too much but we'll take our chances and say
I sang twenty years and a day
But nothing's changed
the human race found some other god and walked into the flames
it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
Then maybe we should all be praying for time
Do you think we have time?
Do you think we have time?
These are the days of the empty hand
Oh you hold on to what you can
And charity is a coat
You wear twice a year
This is the year of the guilty man
Your television takes a stand
And you find that what was over there
Is over here
So you scream from behind your door
Say what's mine is mine and not yours
I may have too much but I'll take my chances and say
I sang twenty years and a day
But nothing's changed
the human race found some other god and walked into the flames
it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
Then maybe we should all be praying for time
Do you think we have time?
Do you think we have time?
