No Time
Whiteout Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My job's calling me and I sure need the dough
Life won't wait and I'll earn my fate
My time's now, I need to go

Nothing going to come my way if I sit here and wait
Nothing going to come my way if I sit here and wait
No time no time to sit back and relax
To much to do to sit back and relax
No time no time to sit back and relax
To much to do to sit back and relax

Traveled miles of road in a box with four wheels
No plans just a load of will to see me through

Nothing going to come my way if I sit here and wait
Nothing going to come my way if I sit here and wait
No time no time to sit back and relax
To much to do to sit back and relax




No time no time to sit back and relax
To much to do to sit back and relax

No time to think for tomorrow
I got to live for today
Got no time to think at all
I just wanted to say

Turnin' on to sweet emotion
Let each day go with the notion
And my passions so revealin'
I can't stop I love freewheelin'

I got no time to think for tomorrow
I got to live for today
Got no time to think at all
I just wanted to say

All for love I'm all for giving
I'm devoted to the living
And it gets me so excited
I can't help it I can't fight it

Never want to know what I got in store
What would my time mean to me
If tomorrow never comes I'll be the day before
And you won't forget me
Don't forget me get this

Hey hey hey

Lift me up and take me too far
Never let it get familiar
Yes in that I can believe now
Getting' up I'm getting' right now
I'm alright now

No time to think for tomorrow
I got to live for today
Got no time to think at all
I just wanted to say

No time to think for tomorrow
I got to live for today
Got no time to think at all
I just wanted to say

No time to think for tomorrow
I got to live for today
Got no time to think at all
I just wanted to say

Should have been so, so much bigger. Bite it is an unbelievably accomplished album considering their ages at the time. Really good young musicians producing an album with a great classic feel that will never date. Pretty soulful too

@mrpleasurehead

I was assistant engineer on their recordings. I got on great with them because they were absolutely sound. I was also their drum tech for a tour that ended at Phoenix Festival. Fond memories of getting blotto with them and nicking a shopping Trolley to push eachother around Windsor. Good times 😅

@andyroberts6202

Played the album to death. Class.

@garyhellawell4312
