Nanci Griffith - Time Of Inconvenience lyric

We're living in a time of inconvenience

Compassion fails me with this meanness in the air

Our city streets are filled with violence

So we close our doors to the city

And pretend that it's not there

Here I go again back out on these mean streets

The evil seems to cling to the soles of my feet

'Cuz I'm living in a time of inconvenience

At an inconvenient time

We're living in the age of communication

Where the only voices heard have money in their hands

Where greed has become a sophistication

And if you ain't got money, you ain't got nothin' in this land

And here I am, one lonely woman on these mean streets

Where the right to life man has become my enemy

'Cuz I'm living in his time of inconvenience

At an inconvenient time

I've turned my cheek as my history fades

While the clock ticks away any progress we've made

I never thought I'd be ashamed to be human

Afraid to say, my time has seen it's day

'Cuz I'm living in a time of inconvenience

Living in a time of inconvenience

Living in a time of inconvenience

It's an inconvenient time

This is the time of greed and power

Where everyone needs to have someone to shove around

Our children come to us for answers

Listening for freedom but they don't know the sound

And there they are, our children

Dumped out in these mean streets

The evil sweeps them up

And brings them to their knees

'Cuz they're living in our time of inconvenience

They're living in the age of communication

This is the time of greed and power

This is the time that I wish was not mine

'Cuz it's an inconvenient time

Time, oh time, it's an inconvenient time
