I was on the level when I began to slide   I was on the top rung too when I began to climb   I called you up from the abyss   To say the purpose of your life is   Just to live your life   The life that you are living       They don’t know what they’re doing   They do it very well   If you ask for Heaven   Oh, they'll try to sell you Hell   And if you live within their laws   They’ll take your life and still want more   And they’ll hurry you so just tell them to      Take time, it’ll be fine   Take time, what’s your hurry to be dying?   You’ve got a life to live   If only you could give      If you don’t have money   They'll try to keep you poor   And if you’ve lots of money   Oh, they'll try to give you more   And we were born with simple needs   But they teach us creed and not to read   This is our world too so just tell them to      Take time, it’ll be fine   Take time, what’s your hurry to be dying?   You’ve got a life to live   If only you could give      I want your attention   Time is their invention   Take time but take it easy   Take it like the time
