Time Please Gents - The Guild League

Into the morning of last night

Full of ourselves in the half-light

Let’s get arrested or smashed

By these old buildings covered with ash

I’m arching my back on the treasury lawns

So much carefully cut grass on my knees

Do you have the time?

Do you have the time?

Please

Please

Last one, I said it’s the last one

So much weeping, street-sweeping's begun

Ah, this city’s a hole that’s been filled in

All our skies are defined by the buildings

So I’m arching my back on the treasury lawns

So much carefully cut grass on my knees

Oh come on, do you have the time

Do you have the time

Please (x4)

Please (x8, crescendoing)
