Time to Kill - Deep Purple

Consider your position position your defense

Why don’t you let me ask you is it mere coincidence

Feeding speculators on a downhill gravy train

Like vultures ripping out the eyes to reach the dying brain

Listen to the wind — a silent scream

Tearing at your broken heart

Like a forgotten dream

And there’s a time for peace a time for war

Wondering what we’ve been put here for

A time for giving a time to take

A time for love and a time for hate

A time for beg and a time to steal

So you gamble on that spinning wheel

Of all these things I’ve had my fill

Lord I need some time to kill

Ten percent of nothing is exactly what you got

You thing you’ve got the given right to take another shot

I’ll take away your money all you’ve got is coloured beads

Find a piece of land where you can sow your seeds

There’s a time for passion a time for pain

A time to learn that we’re all the same

A time to remember a time to forget

Wondering how we’re going to pay our debts

A time for thunder a time for rain

Waiting for the seasons to change

Of all these things I’ve had my fill

Lord I need some time to kill
