Time goes by
I know there''s things to be done
Time goes by
I know there''s things to be done

Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living

You need a lift, they pull you down
The system''s got it wrong
I''m a working man and I''m proud of it
So let''s get something on
We blow things up and knock
things down
And make some people sad
It''s quite a world in which we live
When good things turn to bad

Time goes by
I know there''s things to be done
Time goes by
I know there''s things to be done

Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb...

No time to pause, let''s break the rules
Let''s break out while we can
Achieving all one''s destiny is beyond
our mega hands
What to do when you''re pushed around
Led neatly by the hand
Your life''s made up
You''re a working man
So make a final stand

Time goes by
I know there''s things to be done
Times go by

Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb
You know we''re living
Living on a time bomb...
