little you stand before us now
ready to talk so calm and serene
on our screens for all to see
sailed across the oceans
address the united nations
so many powerful leaders
while some listen with respect
we ask what action will they take
oh
it's time to listen and it's time to act
it's time to face the brutal facts
we must learn to embrace the science
and help others to understand
your message is bold crystal clear
greater you speak the words we need to hear
greater you want to save the world
you understand what we need to do
plant more trees and form our seas
shift our way of living
prepare for dramatic changes
the ice is melting faster
soon there'll be nowhere to go
we must control the carbon flow
it's time to listen and it's time to act
it's time to face the brutal facts
we must learn to embrace the science
and help others to understand
your message is bold crystal clear
greater you speak the words we need to hear
greater your humble and sincere
a guiding star for all our young
let the world sit up and listen
and believe we can work together
oh
oh yeah
it's time to listen and it's time to act
it's time to face the brutal facts
we must learn to embrace the science
and help others to understand
your message is bold crystal clear
greater you speak the words we need to hear
your message is bold crystal clear greater
you speak the words we need to hear
