Close this window

World’s getting smaller, troubles getting bigger
Everybody’s got his finger on the trigger
Every Harry, Dick and Tom
They all keep talking about a Neutron bomb
But I’ve got a feeling that time is gonna be in mightly short supply

CHORUS
I want, I need, must have 1,2,3,4 five little minutes with you
To tell you al the things that I’m longing to
Three hundred seconds of loving and affection will do

Everyone’s pushing in every direction
Gotta get some armour plate protection
Everyone jostling elbows
There ain’t no time for a simple hello
But I’ve got a feeling that time is gonna be in mightly short supply

CHORUS

Everyone’s sitting in my front pocket
So I took a trip on a outerspace rocket
But even the man in the moon hollered out "Give me some room"
And I’ve got a feeling that time is gonna be in mightly short supply.

CHORUS
