Get Involved

The time has come to get involved, your future is at stake
Get out of your old easy chair,
shake off the dreams that kept you there
You've got to get on the inside, find out what's going on
For if you keep on napping there, your world will not last long

The time has come to get involved, don't sit there in the way
The world in turmoil,
'round it spins; as one side loses, one side wins
You've got to stand upon your feet while you're still strong and free
For if you close your eyes once more, you'll wake up on your knees

The time has come to get involved, there is so much to say
While soldiers die across the seas, some men cry peace, some victory
You must go searching for the truth, the air is filled with lies
And if you keep your blinders on, your world is bound to die

The time has come to get involved, someone must show the way
Now our church is rock 'n' roll; if God is dead, have you a soul
You've got to speak out clear and true, stand up for what is right
For if you don't get up and go, your day will turn to night

The time has come to get involved, the storm howls 'round your door
The jungle fast is closing in,
your streets are chocked with hate and sin
You must come down out of the clouds, too late to turn away
You can no longer put it off, tomorrow is today
Today
