Killin' Time
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.
People polishing guns
They've got nothing better to do
Though they think they're having fun
They're just living to die, if they but knew
Now, now
All day long they sit at home
Waiting for the milk to come
Watch them turn into stone
Thinking 'bout the things they might have done,
Now, now
You missed the point, you missed the point
You really missed the point
Everybody's got to know
Love's the reason we're here
No matter which way you go
Love's gonna meet you there
Killing time, killing time
Killing time, killing time
You missed the point, you really missed the point
Made me cry, I wonder why, why
You missed the point, you missed the point
