Time Out Songtext
von Steppenwolf

Up early in the morning, ′bout the break of day
Still huggin' that empty pillow where your baby used to lay
No time to think about the past
Good God, it′s time for you to run
Wake up! Your dreams will have to wait
No time for fun

And so it's always wait until tomorrow
Always someday
Always sooner or later
Never today

Why don't you take time out?
Why don′t you take it slow?
The race you run is never done
Why don′t you let it go?
Why don't you take time out?
Why don′t you make the time?
The day is done, go have some fun
Or you will lose your mind


Rough times in the heart of paradise
Another crazy day
Trapped like a rat, you feel the heat
While runnin' through the maze
No time to take a look around
Jump to it, push until you drop
Watch out! The walls are closing in
But you just can′t stop

And so it's always wait until tomorrow
Always someday
Always sooner or later
Never today

Why don′t you take time out?
Why don't you take it slow?
The race you run is never done
Why don't you let it go?

You′re playin′ fast and loose
You play with loaded dice
But what you lose to win the golden goose
May be your life

Why don't you take time out?
Take, take, take time out
Why don′t you take time out?
Why don't you take time out?
