Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We've got to get ourselves together
Take some time and talk it over
We've got to get ourselves together
Try and understand each other
[Verse 2]
The time is come, it's now or never
We must not wait until it's gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone
[Verse 3]
Lately, it seems like every thing's gone wrong
Misunderstandings about who's right and who's wrong
I don't know, I can't stand it
Why didn't it work out, people
Worked out the way we planned it?
[Verse 4]
We've got to get ourselves together
Take some time and talk it over
We've got to get ourselves together
Try and understand each other
[Verse 5]
The time is come, it's now or never
We must not wait until it's gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone
[Verse 6]
So many things we've never talked about
We thought we had everything worked out
Can one man be right all the time?
Now this world is so confused (Yes, it is)
How could we be so blind?
[Verse 7]
Oh, we got to get ourselves together, come on
Take some time and talk it over
We've got to get ourselves together
Try and understand one another, yeah, oh
We've got to get ourselves together
Take some time and talk it over
