You Waste Time Like a Grandfather Clock - The Myriad

You Waste Time Like a Grandfather Clock Lyrics

Where were you a week ago when we gathered in the court yard?
Where were you when we sang and our song shook the ground?
Where were you a week ago when the church bells started swinging?
Where were you when they rang and angles came down?
You waste time like a grandfather clock
You waste time like a grandfather clock
And that's when we start counting sandbags
That's when we start counting sandbags
Where were you a week ago when the green line started growing?
Where were you when it burst and spread green in the crowd?
Where were you a week ago when the red sun wasn't sinking?
Where were you when it cracked and spread fire about?
You waste time like a grandfather clock
You waste time like a grandfather clock
And that's when we start counting sandbags

That's when we start counting sandbags
You waste time like a grandfather clock
You waste time like a grandfather clock
And that's when we start counting sandbags
That's when we start counting sandbags
And if god did part the clouds
Do you think he'd be proud
You waste time like a grandfather clock
You waste time like a grandfather clock
And that's when we start counting sandbags
That's when we start counting sandbags
You waste time like a grandfather clock
You waste time like a grandfather clock
And that's when we start counting sandbags
That's when we start counting sandbags
