Every day there's something new that's going around |
|
Crazy people getting all dressed up to paint the town |
|
Business men they shake their heads and then they frown |
|
Everybody tries so hard to put them down |
|
It seems to me that maybe they got something going |
|
And if you don't make an effort, then you got no way to know |
|
Time is running out |
|
Woman, can you hear me clear? |
|
I hope that you can |
|
Before you go to sleep at night |
|
Take care of your man |
|
And if you want a love that will always be around forever |
|
Then you finally get it, ah, but you ain't gonna have it together |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
Johnny drives a |
|
Thunderbird, he's in a big rage |
|
Always being criticized for being his age |
|
In his nose a safety pin and life's a razor blade |
|
He's so sick of everything that's been made |
|
It seems to me that maybe he's got bad frustration |
|
And all we can do is try and give the right information |
|
Oh, 'cause time is running out |
|
Population on the move |
|
So don't you delay |
|
Get yourself right in the groove ' |
|
N' hear what |
|
I say It's no good being lazy |
|
You've got to get up on your feet and shout ' |
|
Cause it'll make you crazy |
|
When you realise you've been left out |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
In the future there's no room |
|
People standing on your toes |
|
Mother nature's on the run |
|
Everybody's got a gun |
|
Soldiers walking in the street |
|
Giving off a lot of heat |
|
There just ain't enough to eat |
|
If you're poor, you've got no meat |
|
Advertising in the sky |
|
They like to stick it in your eye |
|
So mad it will make you cry |
|
All the things that you don't need |
|
Trouble in the family (Said, separation and the [sea?]) |
|
There is no more unity (Remind me what it used to be) |
|
Complications everywhere (It seems to me it has to be) [?] people stare (You know it's true and) |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
Time is running out, running out |
|
Television in my home (People watching every day) |
|
Someone's talking on the phone (I can't hear a word I say) |
|
There's no time to be alone (There's no time to get away) |
|
Wonder why your mind is blown (Nervous breakdown every day) |
|
Take me where the air is clean |
|
To the country, fresh and green |
|
I just cannot stand this pace |
|
Sorry, but there's no such place |
|
Time is running out, running out (Repeat and fade) |
