Of the Times - Carl Wilson

作曲：Schilling/Michael Smith/C. Wilson

Heard you say that you didn't like the state

That the world is in

Not a day passes that your faith in man

Don't get mighty grim

You say you want to have piece of mind

You tell me that you find life

Is much too unkind

But who else can you blame for

The state of your mentality

If you're just a part of the times

Don't dismay 'cause the dollar won't buy

All the things you need

You must pay 'cause some other's gettin' high

On his selfish greed

You say you want to have piece of mind

You tell me that you find life is

Much too unkind

You want to settle back into

The old days of serenity

If you're just a part of the times

Not a day passes that your faith in

You tell me that you find life is much too unkind

Man don't get mighty grim

Say you want to have piece of mindYou

But who else can you blame

For the state of your mentality

If you're just a part of the times

You put on a face for the crowd

You try to get past not allowed

You get what you give

And you get it deservedly

And you take it a part of the time

You will not get a thing for a dime

You struggle through the passion

The greed and the crime
