- Buyin' Time Lyrics / with translationsUnless you believe in magic
There ain't much left you can be
A skeptic or a fool
Have you been watching your TV
Incredible is all I think of
Did I really see
Wordless faces double talkin'
A runnin' it down to me
About buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
And ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time, yeah
People goin' hungry
Ain't no jobs, they're in the street
Nobody's got no answer
They're just staring at their feet
Ain't no way about it
Things are lookin' pretty bleak
And everybody's scufflin' hard
Tryin' to make ends meet
We're just buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time, yeah
It happened once before, you know in 1932
But now there's so many more of us
There's something we gotta do
Something radical, something different
Got to hit on something new
America, the dream is lost
And it's killin' me and you
We're buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time
We're just buyin' time
There ain't much left you can be
A skeptic or a fool
Have you been watching your TV
Incredible is all I think of
Did I really see
Wordless faces double talkin'
A runnin' it down to me
About buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
And ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time, yeah
People goin' hungry
Ain't no jobs, they're in the street
Nobody's got no answer
They're just staring at their feet
Ain't no way about it
Things are lookin' pretty bleak
And everybody's scufflin' hard
We're just buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time, yeah
It happened once before, you know in 1932
But now there's so many more of us
There's something we gotta do
Something radical, something different
Got to hit on something new
America, the dream is lost
And it's killin' me and you
We're buyin' time
Brother can you spare a dime
Ain't it a crime
How we got to buy time
We're just buyin' time
