And your sleepy head is into make up
When you gaze into your mirror
While you paint your face
And you check your eyelashes
Making sure they're in place
And you mind wanders up
Into another time
And you think of him
And how it should have lasted
While the disc jockey man
Gives you the weather forecast
And then he makes you feel so mellow
While he gets you high
And you remember how we laughed
And how he made you cry
Then you look into your mirror
And as you brush your hair
[Chorus:]
Brush your hair to the rhythm of
The music playing on your radio
Paint your face while you listen
To the talking of the jockey On the early morning show
Put your troubles in
The back of your mind
Cause the temperature
Outside is just fine
And it's ten to eight
And you ain't got the time
So you walk across your room
And start to make your bed
Then you slip into your jeans
Your eyes still feel like lead
And the memory seems to vanish
But the thought's still there
Tell yourself you don't
But deep inside, you still care
Deep inside, you still care
[Chorus:]
And it's ten to eight
And you ain't got the time
[Chorus:]
And it's ten to eight
And you just ain't got the time
Early in the morning when you wake up And your sleepy head is into make up When you gaze into your mirror While you paint your face And you check your eyelashes Making sure they're in place And you mind wanders up Into another time And you think of him And how it should have lasted While the disc jockey man Gives you the weather forecast And then he makes you feel so mellow While he gets you high And you remember how we laughed And how he made you cry Then you look into your mirror And as you brush your hair [Chorus:] Brush your hair to the rhythm of The music playing on your radio Paint your face while you listen To the talking of the jockey On the early morning show Put your troubles in The back of your mind Cause the temperature Outside is just fine And it's ten to eight And you ain't got the time So you walk across your room And start to make your bed Then you slip into your jeans Your eyes still feel like lead And the memory seems to vanish But the thought's still there Tell yourself you don't But deep inside, you still care Deep inside, you still care [Chorus:] And it's ten to eight And you ain't got the time [Chorus:] And it's ten to eight And you just ain't got the time Explain Request ×
