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