Time's a Wastin' Lyrics

Now I've got arms
And I've got arms
Let's get together and use those arms
Let's go
Time's a wastin'

I got lips
And I got lips
Let's get together and use those lips
Let's go
Time's a wastin'

A cake's no good if you don't mix the batter and bake it
And love's just a bubble if you don't take the trouble to make it

So if you're free to go with me
I'll take you quicker than one, two, three
Let's go
Time's a wastin'

Now I've got blues
And I've got blues
Let's get acquainted and lose those blues
Let's go
Time's a wastin'

Now I've got feet
And I've got feet
Let's start to walk where the lover's meet
Let's go
Time's a wastin'

You've got me feeling love like I never have felt it
You're full of sugar and I'm think I'm the booger to melt it

Now I've got schemes
And you've got schemes
Let's get together and dream some dreams
Let's go
Time's a wastin'

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
