Timing
Kevin Johansen The Nada Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Success, success, sucks)
If you want to be afraid, just be afraid
If you want to go back home, just go back home
If you want to comb your hair, just comb your hair
If you want to be alone, just be alone
If you want to watch the sea, just watch the sea
But do it now, timing is the answer
Do it now, timing is the answer to success

If you want to give a kiss, just give a kiss
If you want to fall in love, just fall in love
If you want to never know, just never know
If you want to throw a fit, just throw a fit
If you want to give a show, just give a show
But do it now, timing is the answer, to success
I suppose, I suppose

And if you want to woah, woah!
Just weoh, woah oh!
If you want to tralala!
Just tralala!
If you want to booh hooh!
Just booh hooh hooh!
And if you want to salama, salama
Just salama, salama!
But do it now, don't doubt
Timing is the answer

And if you don't know where to go
And if you don't know what to say
And if you don't know what to do
Just do it now




Ahhh, just do it now
Timing is the answer to success!

I listened to this song a few days in a row than I asked my girlfriend to marry me (because just do it now). Now we are happily married and this tune just comes to my mind and makes me smile from time to time...

@user-dm1fn1nj5o

Thank you for making it. This is such a good song

My best friend showed me this song while we were on Mdma at 5 am during the summer.
We played it on repeat in my car after leaving a club.
He ended up committing suicide a few months later.
He was a genius, the nicest human being ever, and an ivy league student. Rest in peace.
