Lyrics

The time to rise has been engaged
You're better best to rearrange
I'm talking here to me alone
I listen to the finest work song
Your finest hour
Your finest hour
Another chance has been engaged
To throw Thoreau and rearrange
You are following this time
I beg you not beg to rhyme
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
Take your instinct by the reins
You're better best to rearrange
What we want and what we need
Has been confused, been confused
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
Take your instinct by the reins
Better best to rearrange
What we want and what we need
Has been confused, been confused
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
(Oh, oh-oh) your finest hour
