But Not for Me
Time is all we've got and we help them tie the
knot around our necks everytime we give our
time to them!
Calendar Stopwatch Punch the Timeclock
Deadline Dead time None of it is mine
From the time we open our eyes
for the first time 'til we die
All our time gets taken from us
and gets turned into a lie
Time is to create ourselves
To realize ourselves it can't be measured
but we're not alive, we barely survive
under constant pain and pressure!
'Cause all we are to them
is how much we spend
Doind what they want, being one of them!
Think of something you don't do
because no time is your excuse
Then think of how much time you spend
doing things that you don't want to
Sell your time so you can spend
and the circle never ends
And in the end your only role
is just another thing to be bought &sold!
'Cause all we are to them
is how much time we spend
Doing what they want, being one of them!
Deadline Dead time None of it is mine!
Mack The Knife
[Brother Marquis]:
When you're told to do something by your mom and dad
Don't frown in their face or get mad
Because as long as you're livin' under their roof
You better mind your mouth, or get Dad's boot
It's the simples thing that they ask of you
Like mow the lawn and take the trash out too
But it always never seems to get done, so ...
[Luke]
Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spendin' cash
You better wax that kitchen flo'
Or you ain't rock 'n rollin' no mo'!
Yakety Yak! (Don't talk
