Kris Kristofferson - Killing Time текст песни

See that long line of people who keep standing in the rain

Lookin tired, gettin cold

And that signal light theyre waiting for, dont ever seem to chang

Killing time, aint it slow.

Watch them bending with the burden of the pennies that they save

Marking time, growin old

Slowly marching by the numbers to the freedom of the grave

Killing time, aint it slow

Thats the closest thing to living that theyre ever gonna know

And their good times aint no better than their bad

cause they think they need a signal light to tell them they can go

Killing time, aint it sad.

Dont feel sorry for those people who keep standing in the rain

They dont mind, they dont know

cause it never crossed their minds they got a reason to complain

Killing time, aint it slow.

Theyre not haunted by the visions that they never dared to see

And theyll never miss the dreams theyve never had

Theyre condemned to go on living in a penitentiary

For killing time, aint it sad.
