It's About Time Lyrics


Turn! (turn! turn! turn! turn!)
Last time, wrong time
Outside, out of line!
But this time's our time
Right on! we'll let it shine! (get up!)
Turn your clock back
Paint it red on black
Bring it all right back
Oh hell yeah!
Come on!
Alright!
Hey hey hey!
You can spend my money
Don't you waste my time (my time, my time)
Well right now makin' up for lost time, yeah!
Alright! alright!
I think it's high time we lay it out there on the line
Now It's About Time
It's about time
It's about time
Yeah!
Bright lights, old fights
This time we got it right! (yeah)
It's been a long time, overtime
Second flash, you're out of sight (yeah, so get up!)
Turn your clock back
Paint it red on black
Get it all right back
Oh hell yeah yeah!
Come on!
It's alright!
Hey hey hey!
You can spend my money
Don't you waste my time (my time, my time)
Well right now makin' it up to you big time!
Big, big, big, big time!
It's about time we lay it out there on the line
It's about time!
It's about time!
It's a just about time
Just about time yeah!
Re-turn! (re-turn re-turn)
Turn! (turn turn)

It's alright!
Spend my money
Don't you waste my time (my time, my time)
Well we're gonna make it up to you big time!
Big, time! big time!
Cause it's about time we lay it out on the line
It's about time!
It's about time!
It's about time!
It's just about time!
It's about time
It's about time
It's all about
Talk about
Want to know
There ain't no doubt!
It's about time!
Yeah yeah yeah
(something)
Turn your clocks back!
