This is no time for fumbling This is no time for turning down This is no age for wandering All too much, we stumble and fall, we stumble and fall This is no time for mumbling This is no time for forgetting your lines This is no time for tumbling All too much, we stumble and fall, we stumble and fall This is no time for dreaming When you sleep, you wake to find That something or someone Has stolen your precious time, as you start to climb Oh, as you start to climb, yeah As you start to climb, yeah, yeah Oh, as you start to climb This is no time to go missing Though it is the time we'd like to most This is no age to go fishing All too soon it will be us getting caught, as we stumble and fall Oh, too weak to crawl
