The Kleptones Quicksilver Manuva - 1440 Lyrics

A man that knows what to do with his time
Is a man, I guess, that's up in the front of the line

All men are created with equal time
As far as I can see, the only difference is that
Right now, we're making our rent
And I have never been satisfied
Always just two or three steps behind happiness
Then the phone rings
But I don't answer it, cause I don't care who it is
In the course of a day, a man can make three phone calls
And make three thousand dollars
In the course of my day, I have no idea where I'm going
It was funny you know, but
My days and my dreams have never known each other so well
What do I need?
Songs that pass the time
What is going to bring me around?
Songs that pass the time

In the valley where the moons and lovers play
Live two children who were born on Saturday
One was dark, one was fair
Fathered by the hawk, mothered by the mare
Stranger children you will never see
Brothers of the forest and the sea
One was land, one was air
And they kept the fires burning there
In a golden vessel and silver vase
Kept them burning in the strange enchanted place
Kept them burning to the sky
For they knew someday the sun would die

That's how you always end the conversation

Oi! Wake up! You'll have to go in there, dear. It's getting a bit much, I can't cope!
