Painted over the walls
the saddest colour of blue
posters covered in glass

favorite curbside grab
red Valentine's card
stuck on the mirror to keep

record player made of tubes
spinning Tommy by The Who


There's no time to waste
There's no time to wait


Keys on the hook by the door
for the truck sold years ago
standing guitars in the case

filling up closet space
vintage 40's wardrobe
pink Emerson radio

old lace dress I bought in the store
motorcycle boots on the floor


There's no time to waste
There's no time to wait


Sirens up on the street
smoke is burning my eyes
and the neighbours are screaming at me

I can only carry one thing
I can only carry one thing


There's no time to waste
There's no time to wait
