Time Please Gents
Into the morning of last night
Full of ourselves in the half-light
Let's get arrested or smashed
By these old buildings covered with ash

I'm arching my back on the treasury lawns
So much carefully cut grass on my knees
Do you have the time?
Do you have the time?
Please
Please

Last one, I said it's the last one
So much weeping, street-sweeping's begun
Ah, this city's a hole that's been filled in
All our skies are defined by the buildings

So I'm arching my back on the treasury lawns
So much carefully cut grass on my knees
Oh come on, do you have the time
Do you have the time
Please (x4)
Please (x8, crescendoing)
