G D C D / G D Em C / G D Em Am / G D C D
I did my time for 40 years or more
One day I knew I’d had enough and I walked right out the door
People stopped and stared they asked me whatever will you do?
I said I just want to waste my time with you
I guess that I could try something new to earn some pay
Take it to the shops and give it all away
I guess that I could take my number and stand there in the queue
But I just want to waste my time with you
I just wanna waste my time with you
I just wanna waste my time with you
I’ve done my duty, paid my taxes, done all I can do
Now I just want to spend my time with you
I guess that I could buy some shares and watch them grow
Spend the day watching numbers ebb and flow
Reading business magazines for money making clues
But I just want to waste my time with you
Bridge
I’m not afraid of dirty work
I’ve done my share it’s true
I’ve worked on the production line
And in an office too
It’s true I like the money But if I had to choose
I would rather waste my time with you
I guess that I could volunteer my time for free
Become a useful cog in the community
I guess that I could roll my sleeves up and sweat out social glue
But I just want to waste my time with you
Chorus
I just wanna waste my time with you x 2
I’ve put some money in the bank my heads under a roof
Now I just want to waste my time with you
I just want to waste my time with you (to close)
The trappings of success seem shallow, not worth the self abuse
There was a time I thought I understood success
I thought that if I tried I’d stand apart from all the rest
I almost did but once the prize came just within my view
I realised I rather be with you
Chorus
I like to sit around and watch the day go past
