We're dying for the love of good living
Not growing old just to get by
State your claim and buy your time
Time has always got me around the neck so I say

Don't be the one dying young just to get by
With too many things to do and not enough precious time
Inspiration comes from complication
Complication falls from the tree too often but not enough
Complicate myself to inspire myself
Now everything is all messed up

If I got the time, who's got the time?
If I find the time, who's got the time?
I've never got the time

We're dying for the love of good living
We're not growing old and just getting by
State your claim and buy your time
Time has always got me around the neck so I say

Inspiration comes from complication
Complication falls from the tree too often but not enough
Complicate myself to inspire myself
Now everything is all messed up

Don't move while I scream about it
Don't move, I'll paint it on the walls
Don't move while I scream about it
Don't move, I'll paint a perfect picture
