Lyrics
Time Is Ticking Out
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.
We'd better think about the things we say
We'd better think about the games we play
The world went round, around and round
We'd better think about the consequences
We'd better think about the global senses
The time went down, the time went down
What about Chernobyl
What about radiation
We don't know, we don't know
What about deprivation
Gluttony, the human nation
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
Time is ticking out
I guess that we screwed up the ozone layer
I wonder if the politicians care
The time went down, the time went down
What about our children then
Is there nothing left for them
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
La la la la they need oxygen, la la la la they need oxygen
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all
Time is ticking out yeah
Time is ticking out
