The Time Has Come Lyrics

UB40

Don't you know the world, it is of love and of hate?
Now is the time, we've got to be strong, we can't go wrong:
Because the time has come, the time has come to be free, can't you see?

Shup doo doop, shup doo doop doop doo doo, oh.
Shup doo doop, oh, shup doo doop doop doo doo doo.

Don't you know the cheating, the killing, backbiting it cannot help.
'Cause can't you see them problems, it's everyday,
They've got to solve themselves.
'Cause now is the time, we gotta be strong, we can't go wrong.
Because the time has come, the time has come to be free, can't you see?

Shup doo doop, shup doo doop doop doo doo, oh.
Shup doo doop, oh, shup doo doop doop doo doo doo.

Tic toc tic, toc tic, toc tic, toc tic
Said: "The time has gone"
Said the cheating and the killing, backbiting gone
Said: "tic tic tic toc said the time has gone"
Well, you gotta be strong, said "You gotta be wrong."

There is no time to sit around and wait.
Don't you know the world, it is of love and of hate?
Now is the time, we've got to be strong, we can't go wrong:
Because the time has come, the time has come to be free, can't you see?

Shup doo doop, shup doo doop doop doo doo, oh.
Shup doo doop, oh, shup doo doop doop doo doo doo.

Shup doo doop, shup doo doop doop doo doo, oh.
Shup doo doop, oh, shup doo doop doop doo doo doo.
