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
