I Wasted Time

I wasted time

Now time is wasting me

One question left

'To be or not to be?'

I cheated time

Now it's time to pay

All out of change

With less and less to say

I was a handsome raven

In my time

Oh girl

You should've 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

Yes, 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

Has turned to grey

She wore a red dress

She let me undo

But Molly swears, that day

Her dress was blue

Yes, I wasted time

I thought it came for free

And now it's closing time

Won't you pray for me?

I tell ya there's no failure like success

And no success like failure too, I guess
