Angus & Julia Stone - The Beast lyrics

Pack up your things

Your work here is done

A slave to the beast

No mercy with time

No mercy with time

They brand you with the fire

Then push you into the sun

They want the free land to expire

They want everyone to be numb

The world's drinking from a cup

That no one wants to share

Words from the king

That no one wants to hear

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Retrench me because of machines

Kids trading roses for guns

Track mark under the sleeve

I can't talk I need to run

Love's thrown away the ring

Not knowing what to say

Mama, won't you sing

It's like you're cut by the blade

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

Just don't be running late, are you on time today?

(Don't be running late...)

Don't be running late...
