Lyrics
<p>Each morning you wake to the ringing of a bell</p>
<p>Rudely breaking the sandman's spell</p>
<p>Though your dreaming was deep as a wishing well</p>
<p>The ticking of the clock is there to tell you</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p>To get up and go</p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p>You're moving too slow</p>
<p>Do it while you're still in your prime</p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Each day you rush from work to leisure</p>
<p>Walking the line between pain and pleasure</p>
<p>Looking for a place to bury your treasure</p>
<p>Never forgetting what the calendars measure</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p>This worry and waste</p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p>This hurry and haste</p>
<p>Don't bother with the reason or rhyme</p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sometimes lovers when they kiss</p>
<p>Don’t feel the minutes pass</p>
<p>But that fleeting blur of bliss</p>
<p>Won’t stop the hourglass</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Each night you lie in bed and think</p>
<p>And you let your thinking slowly sink</p>
<p>To the bottom of your mind where you're on the brink</p>
<p>Where life is a momentary flash in the blink of an eye</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p>You got some rest</p>
<p>It's about time</p>
<p>You're looking quite stressed</p>
<p>It's not like you're committing a crime</p>
<p> </p>
<p>(Repeat first chorus)</p>
