Everyone's got to have a cause or two
  No one's changing enough to help you
  There's something basically wrong
  Everywhere, we revolve out of our time
  And we know that's there's
     nobody listening to people like us
  But for now, for awhile
  We just forget all about it awhile
  Forget all about it awhile
  For awhile

  Thoughts of life, lots of women, thoughts of love
  These are things that we can't be sure of
  And every minute you live takes you
     a minute towards when you must die
  And we know there are
     times when I'm not even sure I'm alive
  But for now, for awhile
  We just forget all about it awhile
  Forget all about it awhile
  For awhile

  No one's fit to run the world, as far as I can see
  The only person fit to run my world is me
  But that's just one of my own personal crusades
  And for now I'm not complaining, not campaigning
  If you haven't got time to rest, then take the record off now
