Lyrics
Metrognome
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Time on your hands
You do it all the day
Shuffle your feet
And turn on the news
To hear what they might say
They made a machine
And you found your device
They're lighting the fuse
There's no need to worry
Your world will be alright
Time for a smoke
A pint and a joke
You muddle on through
Silently screaming
"What can I do?"
Till time trips you out
Looking about
Blows you away
High as a kite
On a windy day
