Look around you
There's a world full of pain
Don't you know you can
Turn away and get it up and
Start it all again
Oh, what a sad sad picture
Who can tell the future? I don't know
But give us one more chance
Let us find an answer
In any direction, in any direction
It's just a matter of time
- But time is running out
It's just a matter of time
- There ain't no doubt about it
It's just a matter of time
- People standing in line
It's just a matter of time
- Oh, now I made up my mind
I want to know
What I can do about it, yeah
And is one man, willing to go
Against a crowd of people
But trouble started up, long before the radio (radio, radio, radio)
Radio began to hit the times, and keep the times
And give the times to us, yeah, yeah
In every direction of our lives
It's just a matter of time
- But time is running out
It's just a matter of time
- There ain't no doubt about it
It's just a matter of time
- People standing in line
It's just a matter of time
- Oh, now I made up my mind
I'm not afraid to take the hand of a stranger
I'm not disguised as a party of angels
But something just occured to me, music is the remedy yeah, yeah, yeah
It covers all the range and music is a language
In every direction yeah
It's just a matter of time
- Yeah, Yeah, there ain't no doubt about it
It's just a matter of time
- Oh, oh, People standing in line
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
- It's just a matter of time
