There Is No Time Lyrics - Reed Lou

This is no time for Celebration 

This is no time for Shaking Hands 

This is no time for Backslapping 

This is no time for Marching Bands 

This is no time for Optimism 

This is no time for Endless Thought 

This is no time for my country Right or Wrong 

Remember what that brought 

This is no time for Congratulations 

This is no time to Turn Your Back 

This is no time for Circumlocution 

This is no time for Learned Speech 

This is no time to Count Your Blessings 

This is no time for Private Gain 

This is a time to Put Up or Shut Up 

It won't come back this way again 

This is no time to Swallow Anger 

This is no time to Ignore Hate 

This is no time to be Acting Frivolous 

because the time is getting late 

This is no time for Private Vendettas 

This is no time to not know who you are 

Self knowledge is a dangerous thing 

The freedom of who you are 

This is no time to ignore Warnings 

This is no time to Clear the Plate 

Let's not be sorry after the fact 

and let the past become our fate 

This is no time to turn away and drink 

or some vials of crack 

This is a time to gather force 

and take dead aim and Attack 

This is no time for Celebration 

This is no time for Saluting Flags 

This is no time for Inner Searchings 

The future is at hand 

This is no time for Phony Rhetoric 

This is no time for Political Speech 

This is a time for Action 

because the future's Within Reach 

This is the time
