īCuck-cooī 
Oooooooooooh 

Time has come today! 
Young hearts can go their way 
Canīt put it off another day 
I donīt care what others say 
They say we donīt listen anyway 
Time has come today (hey) 

Oooh the rules have changed today (hey) 
I have no place to stay (hey) 
Thinking about the subway (hey) 
My love has blown away 
My tears have come and gone (hey) 
Oh my Lord, I have to roam (hey) 
I have no home (hey) 
I have no home (hey) 

(Oh-la-da-la-da-la-da-la) 
(short instrumental/clock sounds) 

Now the time has come (time) 
No place to run (time) 
I might get burned up by sun uh-ha (time) 
When I have my fun (time) 
Iīve been loved and put aside (time) 
Iīve been crushed by tumblinī tide (time) 
And my soul has been pychedel-is-ized (time) 

(Time) 
Now the time has come (time) 
There are things to realize 
(Time).......has come today! 
(Time).......has come today!

Now the time has come (time) 
No place to run (time) 
I might get burned up by the sun, ah (time) 
But I had my fun (time) 
Iīve been loved an put aside (time) 
Iīve been crushed by tumblinī tide (time) 
And my soul has been psychedel-is-sized (time)
