Lyrics Killing Time - The Kinks
Everybody's
going
somewhere
See
how
they
stand
in
line
All
complaining
their
lives
are
unfair
Too
bad
for
them,
too
bad
for
mine
(It's
the
killing
time)
From
now
till
then
(Killing
time),
Not
knowing
when
They're
watching
me,
I'm
watching
them
Standing
by
the
empty
mine
(Killing
time)
It's
a
killing
time
I
know
it
well
Killing
time
Until
the
bell
Too
late
to
change,
too
soon
to
tell
And
in
between,
the
killing
time
(Killing
time)
Giving
me
hell
Up
above
the
stars
still
shine
Through
the
poverty
and
grime
Of
the
empty
streets
below
Killing
time,
nowhere
to
go
(Killing
time)
Tell
me,
brother
what's
the
plan?
Will
I
be
a
working
man?
And
occupy
my
idle
mind
Or
kill
the
time
I
knew
so
well
(Killing
time)
Giving
me
hell
Still
I
can
smile
at
what
I
see
Soap
operas
full
of
vanity
So
much
wealth
and
property
Side
by
side
with
petty
crime
Is
that
all
life's
meant
to
be?
Commercials
full
of
luxuries
A
man
has
one,
a
cat
has
nine
And
in
between
it's
killing
time
(Killing
time)
It's
a
killing
time
I
know
it
well
Too
late
to
change
Too
soon
to
tell
Still
I
can
smile
at
what
I
find
Waiting
round
and
killing
time
Bite
the
bullet
Help
me
through
it
These
lunatics
will
take
my
mind
Why
can't
life
be
more
sublime
Than
all
of
this
waste
and
killing
time
Killing
time
I
know
it
well
It's
the
killing
time
