A Question of Time - Live - Birmingham N.E.C - April 10, 1986

I've got to get to you first

Before they do

It's just a question of time

Before they lay their hands on you

And make you just like the rest

I've got to get to you first

It's just a question of time

Well, now you're only fifteen (woo)

Oh you look good

I'll take you under my wing

Oh, somebody should

They've persuasive ways

And you'll believe what they say

Sing it!

(Oh, it's just a question of time)

(And it's running out for you)

(It won't be long until you'll do)

(Exactly what they want you to)

No!

Oh I can see them now

They're hanging around, oh!

To mess you up (woo)

To strip you down

And have their fun

With my little one

Sing it!

(It's just a question of time)

(And it's running out for you)

(It won't be long until you'll do)

(Exactly what they want you to)

(It won't be long until you'll do)

(Exactly what they want you to)

No!

Sometimes I don't blame them

For wanting you

You look good, ay

They need something to do

Until I look at you

And then I condemn them

I know my kind

What goes on in their minds

Sing it!

(It's just a question of time) woo

It's just a question of time

It's just a question of time (it should be better)

It's just a question of time (it should be better with you)

It's just a question of time (it should be better)

It's just a question of time, alright! (it should be better with you)

Come on, let me see those hands!

(It should be better)

(It should be better with you)

Thank you
