Keating! movie - It's Time lyrics
rate meSong by Company B<br /><br>
PAUL KEATING:<br>
I've made a habit of collecting clocks<br>
Sleek antiques with tickets and tocks<br>
Didn't you ever wonder why?<br>
I hear the seconds as a perfect space<br>
Pushed together in relentless pace<br>
The beat of a moment passing by<br>
And every face is like the moon to me<br>
Full of hope and opportunity<br>
Pulled in the orbit of its hands<br>
My tide is high and my chance is nigh<br>
I've got to take it and you know why<br>
Somewhere inside you, there's a man that understands<br>
<br>
It's time!<br>
Time, the revelator, destroyer and creator, no-one gets to wait on time!<br>
Time to start afresh, we know we're only flesh and bones and so it's precious time!<br>
It's time!<br>
<br>
The Opposition takes a different tack<br>
They wind it down and they turn it back<br>
They don't like to hear that sound<br>
But time is slipping past them every day<br>
Just like the picture of Dorian Gray<br>
And it's they who come unwound<br>
<br>
KEATING AND BOB HAWKE:<br>
For evolution needs time to move<br>
Just like a drummer beats time to grove<br>
And it can never stand still<br>
<br>
KEATING:<br>
The revolution of a second hand<br>
Is the solution that I must demand<br>
A change is gonna come now, you know it always will...<br>
<br>
KEATING AND HAWKE:<br>
In time!<br>
<br>
KEATING:<br>
Time is of the essence, I know that it's unpleasant but no time like the present time!<br>
Time won't be denied and though you try to hide you know it's on my side...<br>
<br>
HAWKE:<br>
It's time!<br>
Time to make a break, it's time for you to take it, whip and out and shake it,<br>
<br>
KEATING and HAWKE:<br>
Time!<br>
<br>
KEATING:<br>
Time and time again, you might have dug the venue, now you're on the menu, time!<br>
It's time!<br>
<br>
