Lyrics
[Verse 1]
No time for the niceties of conversation
No time for smiles, no time for knowing
Less time for intricacies of explanation
Less time for caring, even less for showing
[PreChorus]
If I could, I'd slow the whole world down
I'd bring it to its knees, I'd stop it spinning 'round
But as it is, I'm climbing up an endless wall
[Chorus]
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
[Verse 2]
No time for a quick kiss at the railway station
Just time for a suitcase, sandwich, and a morning paper
Only time for time tables and transportation
No time to think, no time to dare
[PreChorus]
If I could, I'd slow the whole world down
I'd bring it to its knees, I'd stop it spinning 'round
But as it is, I'm climbing up an endless wall
[Chorus]
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time, no
[Instrumental]
If I could, I'd slow the whole world down
I'd bring it to its knees, I'd stop it spinning 'round
But as it is, I'm climbing up an endless wall
[Chorus]
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
[Outro]
No time at all
[Instrumental]
No time at all
