Lyrics
Wastin' 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.
I'm the person that you're trying not to be.
I'm good at wasting my time;
I got it down pat so easily.
Some people they call me, they call me the king,
Sitting on my throne not doing a thing.
Everybody's passing me on this road I'm on.
I gotta pack my things, get ready to go.
Send me on my way.
And if you could, would you please pay my toll?
'Cause I gotta get out of this place
And this wasting time is getting old.
I've been writing all these verbs down and I don't know why,
'Cause I got no action, I got no action, I got no action in my life.
It's easy living your life doing things the way I do.
If you give it up you better start running 'cause it'll catch up to you.
Everybody's passing you on this road you're on.
You gotta pack your things, get ready to go.
Send me on my way.
And if you could, would you please pay my toll?
'Cause I gotta get out of this place
And this wasting time - it's getting old.
Everybody's passing us on this road we're on.
We gotta pack our things, get ready to go.
Get ready to go...
