Get the Lead Out Lyrics

"Get the lead out" is a way of saying: Hurry up!

The whole song is clearly about time and (to me) how society is driving us to making a bad use of it: rushing for everything.

"Ain't got time for that"

"No time to cuddle you"

I believe Billy here is trying to make us stop and think about slowing down a bit. There is always no damn time.

PS Do you observe people swiping down their Facebook wall sometimes in the train or metro? God they go fast: do they really read something? XD
