skyclad – quantity time lyrics
yet another sluggard hour stumbles past,
it’s no wonder life looks better through the bottom of a gl-ss.
these bitter litanies you keep repeating,
are verbal fingers down my mental blackboard screeching.
each moment in your company
was of more quant-ty than quality.
my hopes and dreams – transparent phantoms,
this wayward son’s irrational anthems.
not worth spending quant-ty time,
life is hunger – life is pain.
never ending quant-ty time,
toe the line – take the strain.
awake in bad in quant-ty time,
hate to say i told you so.
long time dead in quant-ty time,
next stop h-ll – not far to go.
my vision is obscured – blurred by tears of anger,
these four walls a prison where i rot in stagnant languor.
my broken heart screams out “someone repair me” –
or please lay me in the cemetery.
’cause you’ve taken all that’s best, you see,
so i’ll lay to rest the rest of me.
you cannot hold a dream to ransom –
or silence my irrational anthem.
not worth spending quant-ty time,
life is hunger – life is pain.
never ending quant-ty time,
toe the line – take the strain.
awake in bad in quant-ty time,
hate to say i told you so.
long time dead in quant-ty time,
next stop h-ll – not far to go.
