I know, Bobby, I see

The times are awful, true

But they're times that we inherit

What else can we do? The choices pal, are few

Roll over, die, or rise above it all

Show 'em why and how to shove it all

I know, Bobby, I see This is our time, Bobby, this is our time

Bad times, so then what's to lose?

A lousy year of lousy news

And stuffin' cardboard in our shoes When here's a chance

To know what bliss is

It's our dance, hey fellas this is our time

Sad as hell but our time Our world if the world survives

Then we've got time and Bobby

Just maybe it could be

The time of all times of our lives Help it happen, draw the plan

You can't do it nor can I

But Bobby we can this is our time

Maybe it's the last time who knows, but at least it's ours And it won't be the first time

That men picked the worst time

To lift up their eyes to the stars!

'Cause it's our time, here's to our time, this is our time And it won't be the first time

That men picked the worst time

To lift up their eyes to the stars!

'Cause it's our time, here's to our time

This is out time, fellas this is our time

This is our time our time
