Borrowing Time

[Verse 1]

Get up, the needle has pricked a little finger

She wants the beautiful child the blood will bring her

You ask a question in the mirror

Alas, no answer could be clearer

[Chorus]

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

[Verse 2]

Get up, a substitute heart has just reprieved you

Beware, for flattery ruses have deceived you

No kings of yesterday falling

But you'll come when destiny's calling

[Chorus]

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

[Bridge]

I don't want anything anyway

I was happy with what I had yesterday

Who wants the whole weight of the world

When it'll drag you down, underground?

[Verse 3]

Today she's singing a song called "Hallelujah"

You stay, she's bringing the poison apple to ya

Sun's up and reveille's playing

You know what everyone's saying

[Chorus]

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)

Get up (Get up), you're borrowing time

(Borrowing time)
