Cast your worries to the seas, 
You can do just what you please, 
Don't you know that happiness is free, 
Disguised to hide the reasons, 
We believe just what we see. 
It's time to look beyond the real, 
While you create the life you feel, 
Everybody needs their time, 
Scaling mountains they can't climb, 
Falling down to their knees. 
Chorus: 
It's a sign of the times 
Do you want to be 
Just a sign of the times 
It's the end of the line 
Such a tragedy 
It's a sign of the times 
Shooting stars light up the sky 
We march on prepared to die 
I won't let them take my sense of pride, no, 
Safe beneath the shelter, 
But your face you cannot hide 
It's time that people realize 
What stares them right between their eyes 
Everybody's wasting time 
Trying to make the words all rhyme, 
It's so easy to see 
Chorus: 
It's a sign of the times 
Do you want to be 
Just a sign of the times 
It's the end of the line 
Your animosity 
It's a sign of the times 
Don't you feel it? 
It's a sign of the times 
Do you want to be just a sign of the times 
Chorus
