The Meter's Running Lyrics

Will it raing? Will it shine?
You better make up your mind!
Will we sing? Will we dance?
Let's not take a chance
Because soon it's too late
And we don't have time to wait
The world spinning 'round
Needs to know

Where' you gonna go - oh -
The meter's running
Time is ticking, so - oh -
The meter's running
Is it yes or no - oh -
The meter's running

We go up - we go down
Never can get unwound
There's a will and a way
But someone's gotta pay -
Take a break, take ca bow
Give me your answer now
Do you think, do you feel
Are you real?

Where' you gonna go - oh -
The meter's running
Time is ticking, so - oh -
The meter's running
So is it yes or no - oh -
The meter's running

You say you feel the ocean rising
You say you don't know where to stand
And though you're drowning in the water
You think it's safe to hold my hand -
