Now’s Th’ Time/Land Of Awkward Unity Lyrics

[Part I: Now's Th' Time]

[Verse 1]
Now's the time to break the silence
Hold our ground and stand defiant
Fight for what we know is right
And figure out what keeps up down

[Chorus]
But you never seem to suspect
The systems we're raised to respect
But you never seem to suspect
The systems we're raised to protect

[Verse 2]
You could call it human nature
Living on the edge of danger
Put it off 'til the last moment
We're still off guard when it falls apart

[Chorus]
But you never seem to suspect
The systеms we're raised to rеspect
But you never seem to suspect
The systems we're raised to protect
[Verse 3]
Disenfranchised, unorganised
Our paradigms left incomplete
Who is it now that holds us back
From any chance, dragging their feet?
I know it couldn't be me!

[Part II: Land Of Awkward Unity]

[Verse]
Right wing telling me to fuck off
Can't they see I've had enough
Of bullshit patriotic lies
I won't salute when their flag flies
No way

[Chorus]
Living here in the USA
Killing is the American way
Drugs and sex and greed and filth
The American man lives up to the hilt
Living here in the United States
We're all dying, but we feel great
Us American men, we got it made
So don't acid rain on our parade
[Part III: Theme From Fat Albert]

[Intro]
Hey hey hey! It's Fat Albert!

[Verse]
And we're gonna sing a song for you
And you're gonna [?] a thing or two
You have a fun time
With me and all the gang
Learning from each other
While we do our thing

[Chorus]
Na, na, na, na, na, gonna have a good time
Na, na, na, na, na, gonna have a good time
Hey, hey, hey
Na, na, na, na, na, gonna have a good time
Na, na, na, na, na, gonna have a good time

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
