there is no challenge we won't this day meet
our minds are firm and we are on the ball
clamour now falls to silence on the street
each morning comes and the daylight is sweet
late summer but the leaves aren't poised to fall
there is no challenge we won't this day meet
we see what's solid what is sure concrete
there's never reason to delay or stall
clamour now falls to silence on the street
the truth when spoken we need not repeat
the chances change will happen are not small
there is no challenge we won't this day meet
we've organised things and they're now so neat
that there is nothing left that could appall
clamour now falls to silence on the street
a proper day with much more light than heat
no dismal shadows wait out in the hall
there is no challenge we won't this day meet
clamour now falls to silence on the street
(C)2007, Fragano Ledgister
