It's About Time Lyrics

All the kids are throwing sticks
Politics
Nights on the wire
Everybody wants to get by
'Ts a test of the times
A test of my rights
It's on pretty lady

Born to be angry
Grip of the vice
Click on the trigger, girl
Sip wine on ice

It's About Time
Best to rewind
You better blow
Pistols, pistols, pistols

Lights low
Go on baby go
It's a bad time
I'm on a tight rope

Don't go oh go
It's about time, it's about time

Everybody come on
Lights on the beaches
Everybody come on, delight

Close the front door
I don't wanna go
Like I'm on the Truman Show

Best to let go
You don't wanna know
You better blow

Pistols, pistols, pistols
Lights low
Go on baby go
It's a bad time
I'm on a tight rope

Don't go oh go!
It's about time, it's about

All the years of paradise
Paradigms
Paralyze us
You're crazy

All the cards you've organized
Shuffled twice in front of my eyes
Everybody has
Needs, wants, a cold gun

Lights low
Go on baby go
It's a bad time
I'm on a tight rope

Don't go oh go!
It's about time, it's about
Pistols, pistols

It's About Time

The first single from Young The Giant's Mind Over Matter album is a harder-edged alternative sound than any of the band's previous material. Frontman Sameer Gadhia told MTV News it's the most aggressive track on the record both lyrically and thematically. "Sonically, we wanted to take a really contemporary spin on maybe an older rock song," he said, "We just wanted to change things up a little bit and do something a little bit different."

"That song, in particular, I think is really a symbolic idea of how people use power," guitarist Eric Cannata added. "The album touches on a lot of these different themes about times when you can't block out this pressure that you're feeling inside and the times that you kind of break free from that pressure and are able to do limitless things and express yourself in limitless ways."
