Atomic Time ft. Steve Gottwals, Richard Bradley, Mario Licata, Daniele Silvestri & Steve Shouse Lyrics

How long can my head keep beating your wall

And will my pride stay with me for my fall

My common sense is missing

I don't look like me at all

Well time is money and you've been counting pennies

And I can't keep up with your birds and bees

It's not like robbing cradles

This spring and autumn breeze

You've got me running on atomic time now girl

You've got me running on atomic time

I wish I had some more time for both of my hands

I wish I had some time so I'm not late

Take a little time, take a little time, take it

And your busy counting minutes

Take a little time, take a little time, take it

And I've lost count of my heart rate

Take a little time, take a little time, take it

Maybe I'm behind the times

Using slate to catch my rhymes

And so I punched the clock just to find it was well beyond my weight

Burned both ends to preserve a jittery state

And if I could buy some more time

Then I'd hurry just to wait

You've got me running on atomic time now girl

You've got me running on atomic time

Spinning plates are crashing all around me

And here I am unsettled in my ways

Time's slipping, time's slipping

My watch still requires winding

Time's slipping, time's slipping

And I'm slack jawed again today

Time's slipping, time's slipping

You've got me running on atomic time now girl

You've got me running on atomic time

Tick ticking away, tick ticking away

You've got me running on atomic time now girl

Tick ticking away, tick ticking away, away

And I'm running out of time
