    Lyrics
    These are the days of the open hand
    They will not be the last
    Look around now
    These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
    This is the year of the hungry man
    Whose place is in the past
    Hand in hand with ignorance
    And legitimate excuses
    The rich declare themselves poor
    And most of us are not sure
    If we have too much
    But we'll take our chances
    Because god's stopped keeping score
    I guess somewhere along the way
    He must have let us alt out to play
    Turned his back and all god's children
    Crept out the back door
    And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
    Hanging on to hope
    When there is no hope to speak of
    And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
    Well maybe we should all be praying for time
    These are the days of the empty hand
    Oh you hold on to what you can
    And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
    This is the year of the guilty man
    Your television takes a stand
    And you find that what was over there is over here
    So you scream from behind your door
    Say "what's mine is mine and not yours"
    I may have too much but i'll take my chances
    Because god's stopped keeping score
    And you cling to the things they sold you
    Did you cover your eyes when they told you
    That he can't come back
    Beacuse he has no children to come back for
    It's hard to love there's so much to hate
    Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of
    And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
    So maybe we should all be praying for time

    Damn, why does this song just keep getting more relevant.

    The rich declare themselves poor. Ain’t that the truth these days. That line is truly prophetic.

  • @Revenant74

    This song came out in 1989 but ironically it's more relevant today in 2023 with humanity in decline.

    I wish people wrote songs like this today, and I really wish people would listen to the words of songs like this.

    Was this George’s message for us today? It hits harder than ever.

  • @ABC-dh4cr

    "That he can't come back 'cause he has no children to come back for..." wow...😢😢

  • @johnnyenglish9622

    He predicted the future. RIP mate. Legends never die 1963 - 2016. Song is a creative masterpiece.

    What a genius this man was. This song was released almost 25 years ago. Yet the lyrics are playing out in real time today. Men and women are lovers of themselves. “The rich declare themselves poor,and most of us aren’t sure if we have too much. But, we’ll take the chance cause Gods stopped keeping score”. You cling to the things that they sold you, did you cover your eyes when they told you that he can’t comeback, cause he has no children to come back for”. Such relevant lyrics. We have turned our backs on God and we have no one to thank but ourselves. George was right. Maybe we should all be praying for time. George’s time was cut short and he was taken too soon. Don’t make the same mistake. Thanks for the music, George. You are sorely missed.

    George wrote many songs but this is the one that hits home and will forever stay with you and touch that center that has you questioning everything you thought you knew as a human being. Still gives me chills with tears in my eyes. We miss his presence oh so much. ❤

    These might be among the 20 greatest lyrics ever written for a pop song.
