Lyrics
Time's ticking, you should just get up on the side
Time is passing, and it's advisable to get up and face reality.
And cheer along like
Encouraging someone to join in and be positive.
My mind's been tainted by your cunning smile

And your bright side down low

And God knows if you're ever going to show

They know that it's dark and there's no light

All I want is to lead you there

With streets depressed light

Your dimes in prison lost the girl you kissed

And the wells missed at home
