Verb On
Everybody's got so much to say
Everyone's always pointing out all the things in their way
Maybe they think this is some noun game they get to play
Neither will adjectives cut through the disarray
Not when the need that we have is so incredibly great
The time for describing is past
No progress comes to those who wait
So to all the doers
Carry us forth
Into the future
Verb on
Verb on
It's not that verbs alone will carry the day
Any coherent thought has more parts of speech on display
It's balance we must seek between thoughtfulness and a flame
They've been warning us for many decades
But the studying class cannot get us out of our own way
They're not wrong, though
We're all witnesses to the change
It's beautiful
It's beautiful
The only way to save it is to go
To act
Outside of our comfort zone
...and here I am doing just the same
Channeling this energy into words
From my position it's so easy to say
But maybe getting this song up on the stage can be a first step
On a road made up of verb steps
I could join the doers
You could join me
And together we will beat the heat
Verb on
