In Time

Lyrics

[Vocals: Sly Stone, (Little Sister)] [Verse 1] There's a mickie in the tasting of disaster In time (In time) – you get faster Harry Hippie is a waste as if he has'ta Procrasti––inatin' Something moving in the brain of a doer In time (In time) – feel a little newer I switched from coke to pep and I'm a connoisseur Mmm-hmm ('Bout time) [Verse 2] 'Cause there's a method in the madness of the thinking In time (In time) – "Oh we oughta..." It seems the best of all the sadness is a sinkin' In time (In time) – muddy water And there's a wreck yard in the mind of a quitter In time (in time) – gonna git bitter He don't give a heck or is he blind and makin' litter? In time ('Bout time) – gonna need a babysitter [Verse 3] Ahh, I felt so good, I told the leader how to follow In time (In time) – git down So glad I could not feel indeed so very hollow No need – to follow Our insecurities attracting every flirter In time (In time) – yeah, it's murder If you don't mind, please, why give slack to a deserter? In time ('Bout time) [Chorus] Well, well, o well, well, o – daylight is all I see Ahhh, stay light – and wait for me Whoa, whoa, whoa-whoa See you – tomorrow noon (Miss me) Hi! – (I'll see you soon) [Break: Instrumental] [Verse 4] Well, well – I told you, it's not the teachin', it's the learning In time (In time) – don't need no burning When I mold you to start reaching in the mornin' In time Well, well, there's a feeling oh so real in every human On time ('Bout time) – hah-hah-ooh-ooh There's a reeling when you don't know what you're doing On time ('Bout time) – haaay, hey [Bridge] Stay around to get a show – haaay, hey (In time) Don't you know Two years, too long to wait Ha-aah – two words, get it straight (In time) – Ya see an answer In time (In time) – And that ain't nothing, I'm a dancer Ohh! Two years, too long to wait Oh!! (Two words, uh–get it straight) (Two years, too long to wait) (Two words, uh–get it straight) Ah, yessir, yessir, yeah (Two years, too long to wait) (Two words, uh–get it straight) In time, in time (Two years, too long to wait) (Two words, uh–get it straight)
