(lyrics are written by Nick Reynolds)
Time to let the rain fall, without the help of man.
Time to let the trees grow tall, now if they only can.
Time to let our children, live in a land that's free.
Chorus:
Ally ally, ally ally oxen free
(then the background singers) Ally ally, ally ally oxen free.
Time to blow the smoke away, and look at the sky again.
Time to let our friends know, we'd like to begin again.
Time to send a message, across the land and sea.
Chorus:
Ally ally, ally ally oxen free
(then the background singers) Ally ally, ally ally oxen free.
Strong and weak, mild and meek. No more hide and seek...
*whistling begins in the background*
Time to see the fairness, of a childrens game.
Time for men to stop, and learn to do the same.
Time to make our minds up, if the world at last will be...
Chorus:
Ally ally, ally ally oxen free
(then the background singers) Ally ally, ally ally oxen free.
(repeat chorus again, and then continue repeating as it fades to nothing)
