UB40 - Matter Of Time Lyrics

Just a matter of time till you run out of breath
Money mountains you climb never hedging your bets
But your luck can run out, you'd better watch your step
Just a matter of time

Just a matter of days till the factory's done
When they shut down the lathes 'cause the work has all gone
And nobody cares 'cause there is no one
Just a matter of day

I know what you mean and I suppose I agree
I'm a bit pushed for time, please don't bother me
Take your guidance elsewhere 'cause I've heard it before
In case it's not very clear, I don't care anymore

Just a matter of hours until you're forgotten
And you're pushing up flowers that you used to the rot
So that was your life, it didn't manage a lot
Just a matter of hours

I know what you mean and I suppose I agree
I'm a bit pushed for time, please don't bother me
Take your guidance elsewhere, 'cause I've heard it before
In case it's not very clear, I don't care anymore

I know what you mean and I suppose I agree
I'm a bit pushed for time, please don't bother me
Take your guidance elsewhere, 'cause I've heard it before
In case it's not very clear, I don't care anymore

I know what you mean and I suppose I agree
I'm a bit pushed for time, please don't bother me
Take your guidance elsewhere, 'cause I've heard it before
In case it's not very clear, I don't care anymore
