lyrics

(ExP)
I got 24 hours and I slept a good 12/
Got up and felt groggy like my head wasn't well/
Sat around for 4 hours watched telly and felt/
Peckish as hell so demolished the crisps left on the shelf/
Playstation for 8 hours
Pretended that day was fine....
But nah it was a waste of time

(JND)
They say the devil makes work for any idle hands /
And social media's a fine example /
To all those times you've glanced through is time that you won't get back dude /
From fine dining flicks to cats, cute /
Don't care who you're eating with, less so how you're feeling it's a waste of time /

(ExP)
I worked a 9-5 for years doing customer service/
My wage went on rent, rates or put in the furnace/
I had: zero savings, tried to push up my earnings/
But the managers were always a massive trouble to work with/
Refused to suffer and worship and succumb to their lies/
My years employed were a waste of tiiime

(JND)
You can tell someone summat till you're blue in the face /
But if they don't want to hear it, well nothing'll change /
Tryna get my nephew to crack on with his course /
Though education in the classroom isn't suited to all /
In a world where certificates are vital to success, don't wanna push less or waste my time /

(ExP)
I made sure I registered, eligible to vote/
I did my research on each parties benefits and faults/
Thought carefully bout my choice, I've never been a bloke/
To not take decisions seriously, then I went and chose/
Lib Dem was such a joke, Nick Clegg joined the enemy and oh/
What a massive waste of tiiiiime

(JND)
To some shopping's a hobby, and they're loving the White Rose /
Weekend looking to find clothes, I'd rather be stuck on a tightrope juggling five goats than shuffling round on the hunt for a nice coat /
Falling Down coupled with Psycho, the traffic jam not looking good for the drive home /

(Chorus)
Don't Waste Time, Don't Waste Ya Time (x4)

(JND)
They say time’s money and that may be so /
If every second did equate to dough, we’d be well flush /
The clock ticking never pays me though /
Many hours spent chasing notes, that doesn’t help us /
You could always sell drugs to folk /
Instead of busting a gut in hope that your wealth comes /
Flash car, sayin’ "chuff the po" but do you wanna sit in prison? It’s a waste of time /

(ExP)
I gave the bathroom a scrub with a bucket of bleach/
Dirt that you wouldn’t believe, I’m sure summat was green/
Then I cleaned the furniture with a duster and sheen/
Got it to gleam, then to the kitchen, had it looking pristine/
Went in on the oven, the brush was covered in grease/
I vacuumed, washed the carpet, it looked like a dream/
And it was back to being dirty in a couple of weeks
Cleaning is such a gigantic waste of tiiiiiiiime /

(JND)
To the people stood in queues who are waiting their turn /
And those staying in for that package they earned /
All you OCD-ers who alphabetise, it’s a waste of your time /
But your shelves looking….. nice /
Not tryna criticise, only make you aware, your time’s limited, so why bother wasting it there/
You’ll be standing in a lift, bored, sniffin’ the air /
While I raise my heartbeat, runnin’, taking the stairs /
There’s always summat that you need to do, if life’s defeating you heed the tune /
Don’t waste your time /

(ExP)
Man where did I put em I looked under the couch/
I checked my coat pockets twice, by now they should have been found/
I asked my missus where she put em, are they somewhere around?/
…She said she didn’t touch em, have I looked up and down?/
I said…probably yes, but haven’t got em, instead/
I’m checking the house from the top to the bottom, unless/
I left em outside, ahh they’re probably locked in the shed/
I opened it up, dug around man, I properly checked/
Couldn’t find em for the life of me, did they drop on the steps?/
…I searched around the floor, found nothing and left/
Looked in the mirror , angry at the loss of my specs/
Oh they’re on top of me head
What a waste of time/

(Chorus)
Don't Waste Time, Don't Waste Ya Time (x8)
