Speak out, speak out against the madness, yes, yeah, yeah
And if you do forsake this child you'd better cut your hair
Appears to be a long such a long, a long
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't
And it appears to be a long, oh, oh
Turn, turn any corner
Appears to be a long, yeah, yeah
Appears to be a long time
Something, something, something's goin' on around here
Turn and hear
But you know, the darkest hour, yeah
It is always, just before your dawn, yes it is
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time
It'll be a long time gone
Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah, yeah, yeah
Appears to be a long, yeah
It's been a long time comin'
Such a long, long time before the dawn
What your friends and your neighbors might have to say, yeah
Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah
Surely, surely, surely will not stand the light of day
And it appears to be a long
All I'm sayin' is speak your mind
Such a long, long time
And it appears to be a long
That is if you still can and you still have the guts to
It appears to be a long, yes it does now
Try to get yourself elected, no, no
Appears to be a long, oh, oh, oh
Appears to be a long time
