scritti politti - tinseltown to the boogiedown (radio edit) lyrics

female: time keeps slipping, keeps slipping
rapper: yeah, the only thing major don’t waste is time in bed
my time is rare, take time, time to prepare
no time for fear, how many times i said it this year?
at what time ya going to realise that time is near?
call a time out, scritti politti, major climb down
the cracks of the streets waste no time on beats
mos’ def most definitely the rap chief
the new release, time to make cream, time to take a piece
and at the same time, time to rebuild, time is rilla
i swear i bring the heat, the tracks to val kilmer
you know that time waits for no man, in time you’ll see that
you’re wasting all you time while you’re watching tv
and yo’ scritti, i’m on it like walls to graffiti
from night sticks, to plungers, to nypd
from lucille bb king, you’ve seen me rhyme
you stay away from drama if it’s wasting your time
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: from tinseltown
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: to the boogiedown (time, time keeps slipping)
they play for time and work for sp-ces
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: and clocks are wound
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: and worked around (time, time keeps slipping)
and in their prime they change their faces
rapper: yeah, from boogiedown to the tinseltown i had em’ all gettin’ down
my baggage claim’s got exotic names, i get around
how i’m livin’ now, well that’s a whole lot different now
from where i’m sitting now, got a whole clearer vision now
i played the tables hard, wild cards i was flipping now
my partners hittin’ pounds, somewhere up in prison now
i’m flippin’ high, things switch and change so suddenly
the way you act today is tomorrow’s where you wanna be
you company shifts when you start livin’ comfortably
spotlights switch and then you dip right from under me
don’t front for me, i want to be perfectly clear
time is here, i’m keepin’ yesterday in the rear
a current affair, mos’ def and lee majors appear
bout to write this little ditty with the scritti, you hear
and it’s about that time, so if you could be then would you
sit back and look at who time’s bein’ good to
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: from tinseltown
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: to the boogiedown (time, time keeps slipping)
they play for time and work for sp-ces
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: and clocks are wound
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: and worked around (time, time keeps slipping)
and in their prime they change their faces
rapper: at one time i thought i had it all, m-ss of broads
flash awards, cash cards, time’s a double-edged sword
one day you hear applause, next day when you leave
you catch a l in the c like christopher reeves
d’you all believe that these cats threw dirt on my name?
give ’em time, they couldn’t win if i gave ’em point game
at times i used to swerve, now i’m learning my lane
trapped in time, what a shame, with n0body to blame
i waits for no-one, and fat ‘n’ slow ones, the rich no-funs
the samurais ‘n’ shoguns, the first stringer no-runs
a yo gun, you’d better hope to it or you blow son
this time keeps slipping, make no difference if you don’t come
it’s bein’ well recorded how we advise we
get on our game and spend these moments wisely
it’s time to make chase, give pace, no time to waste
first you on, then you gone so long, you been replaced
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: from cali high
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: to the do or die (time, time keeps slipping)
they set their hearts and fix their courses
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: an’ dreams of dreams
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: of how it seems (time, time keeps slipping)
they steel themselves, they are resources
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: from tinseltown
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: to the boogiedown (time, time keeps slipping)
they play for time and work for sp-ces
rapper: the time tables keep turning
green: and clocks are wound
rapper: you’ve got the both ends burning up
green: and worked around (time, time keeps slipping)
and in their prime they change their faces
rapper: the time tables keep turning
you’ve got the both ends burning up
and all the lies you’ve been learning
to keep the future on hold
the time tables keep turning
you’ve got the both ends burning up
and all the lies you’ve been learning
to keep the future on hold
