People all get ready
'Cause we're tearing down the stand
Rebuild what's gotten unsteady
And see it through with newer hands
What has gone between us
Is a lot, is a lot
And who'll be there to clean us
When you're not, when you're not
And people all get ready
'Cause we're breaking down again
Rebuild what's gotten unsteady
And see it through with wiser hands
And what has gone before us
Is a lot, is a lot
And who'll be there to ignore us
When you're not, when you're not
And we have all the time in the world
To get it right, to get it right
And we have all the love in the world
To set alight, to set alight
People all get ready
'Cause we're breaking down the band
Rewrite what's gone already
And see it through with angry hands
And what has gone before us
Is a lot, is a lot
And who'll be there to ignore us
When you're not, when you're not, oh
And we have all the time in the world
To get it right, to get it right
And we have all the love in the world
To set alight, to set alight
Just look up, just look up
Just look up
And we have all the time in the world
To get it right, to get it right
And we have all the love in the world
To set alight, to set alight
Just look up, just look up
People all get ready
'Cause we're coming to a stop
