I Wasted Time

I wasted time, now time is wasting me

One question left-to be or not to be?

I cheated time and now it's time to pay

All out of change and less and less to say

I was a handsome raver in my time

Oh girl, you should have seen me in my prime

I see old friends at funerals now and then

It's down to this-it's either me or them

Yeah, I wasted time

Now time is wasting me

Soon it's closing time

Won't you stay with me?

Molly took my hand and led the way

Now Molly's yellow hair is silver-grey

She wore a red dress she let me undo

But Molly swears that day her dress was blue

Yeah, I wasted time

I thought it came for free

Now it's closing time

Won't you pray for me?

I tell you there's no failure like success

And no success like failure too, I guess
