Time is running out

I could have been a Christian, marching on to war.
I could have been a boxer, breaking many jaws.
I could have been a copper, pounding out of beat.
I could have been a loser, sleeping on the streets.

But I have wasted all my time,
Having good times with the women and the wine.
And if I had my time again - I wouldn't change a single thing.

I could have been a teacher, teaching in a school
I could have been a student, learning all the rules.
I could have been a builder, bricks up on a wall.
I could have been just anything and anyone at all.

But I have wasted all my time. (Time is runnin' out)
Having good times with the women and the wine. (Time is runnin' out)
And if I had my time again - I wouldn't change a single thing. (Time is runnin' out)

I could have been a gardener, (?)
I could have been a surgeon, get inside your head.
I could have been a faggot, working in a store.
I could have been an actor in 1984.

But I have wasted all my time. (Time is runnin' out)
Having good times with the women and the wine. (Time is runnin' out)
And if I had my time again - I put the clock back and I'd start again. (Time is runnin' out)
I dream of all the faces I haven't seen. (Time is runnin' out)
Of all the people, that I've never been. (Time is runnin' out)
But if I had my time again, I wouldn't change a single thing. -
My time is running out!
