Hey! Don't wait! It's happening — right now! Don't wait for permission, don't wait for a sign Don't wait for the world to fall in line While everyone's arguing about what's wrong Somebody somewhere started something warm And it's growing while you're reading And it's growing while you sleep Human after human — Go and see! Go and see! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! A more human world isn't coming someday It started without asking, and it's here today! ALREADY BEGUN! Three little gestures, that's the whole recipe: Take your place, invite, and watch it be No chief on a throne, no line to obey The group belongs to no one — we build it today! And it's growing while we're singing And it's growing while we dance Human after human — Come and see! Come and see! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! A more human world isn't coming someday It started without asking, and it's here today! ALREADY BEGUN! Hundreds of us tonight… and one is on the way… Every time we sing this line… the number's grown again… So this song will never be finished… (beat drops out — one breath of silence) AND THAT'S THE POINT! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! A more human world isn't coming someday It started without asking, and it's here today! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! IT'S ALREADY BEGUN — oh-oh-oh-oh! ALREADY BEGUN!
