I'm lookin' at my watch

At all the time that's been stolen

When I was carryin' you

Seems I've tripped and I've fallen



Don't want no one to ache

Oh, to be drunk and forgetful

To get out of this unscatched

Oh, to be free and inhuman



Some may say

I love to play

When the chance is there to take



I'm moppin' up the floor

From messy recipies of romance

I'm packing up the pots

Too many cooks in the kitchen



Some may say

I love to let

A good thing go to waste

I let it go to waste



Let a good thing go to waste

A good thing go to waste

Let a good thing go to waste

A good thing go to waste



I'm lookin' at my watch

At all the time that's been stolen

When I was carryin' you

Seems I've tripped and I've fallen
