"I Got The Time" lyrics

"I Got The Time"

Twenty twenty quarantime land of the Free
Ain't nobody going nowhere nothing here to see
How long am I expected to stare at these four walls?
The voices in my head are screaming down the hall
Telling me to find a place where I can go and play
I'm all freed up but I can't get away

I got the time, but I ain't got the money
It's not unusual, it's a hell of a thing
I heard the line that the truth can be funny
I got the time, but I ain't got the money

I log online to try and find a place to escape
But it's spring break in Ibiza and summers on The Cape
Wine and dine sixty-nine Champagne and Caviar
Members of a different club, the billionaires, and stars
How can a blue collar, low dollar poor boy like me
Find a seat at the table in this other galaxy?

I got the time, but I ain't got the money
It's not unusual, it's a hell of a thing
I heard the line that the truth can be funny
I got the time, but I ain't got the money

Play my numbers sit and wonder how to strike it rich
This fantasy's my mistress, reality's a bitch
That calls up to invite me to vacation with my friends
But I don't wanna hear it, I know how this story ends
I'm all freed up but I can't get away
All freed up but I can't get away
All freed up but I can't get away

I got the time, but I ain't got the money
It's not unusual, it's a hell of a thing
I heard the line that the truth can be funny
I got the time, but I ain't got the money

I got the time, but I ain't got the money
I got the time, but I ain't got the money
I got the time, but I ain't got the money
I got the time, but I ain't got the money
