Who could have thought 34 years ago when the band was originally formed, that Evil Conduct from Roermond NL would become an internationally renowned Oi! band with fans all over the globe. For sure, the original line up, existing of brothers Han & Ray and their mate Frans, would have told you to stop taking the piss.
Over the decades there were a few breaks and line-up changes, but recently Evil Conduct returned to the stage in its original form, so the story continues for Han, Ray & Frans. For those of you who don’t know the band’s live reputation, be prepared for an energetic set of singalong Oi! stompers which covers work from the early years as well as the more recent hits.

Time Is Running Out
Evil Conduct Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So many dreams to follow, but time goes by so fast
Wanted to be famous, when I turned twenty-four
No one seems to know me though, I think I know the score
Time is running out on me
Time is running out
How long does it take to see
Time is running out on me
Time is running out
How long does it take to see
That time is running out
I wanna earn a fortune, I wanna own a plane
Need to find a way now, I have to use my brain
I hoped to be a millionaire, at the age of thirty-five
I haven't got a penny though, I really hate my life
The lyrics of "Time Is Running Out" by Evil Conduct depict the struggles and frustrations of a person who has dreams and aspirations but is constantly reminded of the passing of time. The song tells the story of someone who wants to achieve great things in life, such as fame, fortune, and success but is hindered by the fact that time seems to be working against them. The lyrics describe the disappointment and feelings of failure that come with unfulfilled ambitions and unmet expectations.
The song's message is particularly resonant for people who feel that they are running out of time to achieve their goals. The line, "Time is running out on me," is particularly poignant as it conveys a sense of desperation and the realization that one's time is finite. By repeating the line throughout the song, the lyrics emphasize the urgency of the situation.
The singer's frustration is evident as they lament that they are not where they thought they would be at this point in their lives. The lyrics express a deep sense of regret for not achieving what they set out to do and highlight the difficulty of accepting that time waits for no one. Ultimately, "Time Is Running Out" serves as a reminder that life is short, and we must use our time wisely.

either if one of my pets died or one of my friends.. this song makes me feel strong in some times, cause i know the time is running out on me too! live your life untill its end and stay strong matter what comes!!! in some years we will see us again and drink partying in heaven or valhall or whatever.. it doesnt matter about people who die, doesnt matter if you did sth embarrasing. you only need to learn about life untill it ends with no fear in your heart. Do what you want to do and stay strong! i love you all guys even if i hate you..
