Lyrics

(Latimer/bardens)
Time on your hands
You doodle the day
Shuffle your feet
And turn on the news
To hear what they might say

They've made a machine
A new fangled device
They're lighting the fuse
There's no need to worry
Your world will be alright

Time for a smoke
A pint and a joke
You muddle on through
Silently screaming
"What can I do?"

Till time trips you out
Larking about
Blows you away
High as a kite
On a windy day

Andrew latimer guitar
Peter bardens electric piano, organ, string synthesizer
Richard sinclair bass, vocals
Andy ward drums, money, percussion
Mel collins tenor saxophone
