Just About Time - The Flatlanders

Everybody's saying it's

Just about time

But it's partly about space

The rest is all about not

Dividing things up

And leaving every last little

Piece in it's place

You can start out slow

You can speed things up

You can take things as they are

Average person is afraid

To talk about death

But not afraid of driving a car

Take the whole ball of wax

Stick it to the facts

Life might stop on a dime

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just about time

Don't you think it's just about time

Don't you think it's just about time

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just about time

You worry and you hurry and

It's just about time

But it's partly about space

Everything that goes up must come down

And nothing's in the way until

It gets in your

Face

It goes without saying that I must say

Some things are better left unsaid

Here and there

Gone everywhere

You may be just a dreaming when you're

Waking up dead

Dying for love

Living in fear

Neither is a reason or rhyme

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just about time

Somewhere beyond the dark and the dawn

Unsaid unsung and unseen

Somewhere behind the back of your mind

Not beside not before

Not even in between

Sitting in silence being in love

Looking for a mountain to climb

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just about time

Some are denying it's just about time

Some don't believe in space

If you try to undo what's done been did

You'll mistake the static

For the thrill of the chase

If time is money space is credit

They're talking about it all over town

Are you rolling in the black

Or sinking in the

Red

Is gravity the only thing

That's holding you down

It's hard to stop when

You're picking up speed

Brother can you spare me a dime

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just about time

Don't you think it's just about time

Don't you think it's just about time

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just about time

Sooner or later it's now or never

Don't you think it's just abou
