We've seen the writing on the wall
Been clear to many for two thousand years
So shall we wait for man to fall?
So shall we wait for mother nature's tears?

Now can you feel the spirit moving by your side?
And is your conscience clean enough to like the ride?
The damage done, now is the time to repair
So do you care, and would you share, would you help?
Put it right, put it right if we can?

So can we turn to save ourselves?
Or would we kiss goodbye to all of this?
We should be thinking of our health
And as a rule we shouldn't take the piss!

Now is the time for us to choose to live or die
And it is time for us to answer questions why
And it is time for us to count our new recruits
And it is time for us to take off our big boots
And learn to tread without destroying all we touch!

Turning the tables, is all this fighting for
Turning the tables, where rich man becomes poor
Correcting the fables, it's time for the truth and more
Turning the tables, the time to settle the score
Once and for all!

So are we ready now to choose
As we are far from living sensibly
Tread very gently or we'll lose
This greatest gift, of all, humanity!

So will we live to see our children growing old?
And will we live to see our silver turn to gold?
Or will we sit and watch our nightmares all unfold?
And didn't daddy tell us all to learn to do as we are told?
For daddy knows what is best!

Turning the tables, is all this fighting for?
Turning the tables, where rich man becomes poor
Correcting the fables, it's time for the truth and more
Turning the tables, it’s time to settle the score
Once and for all!
