time operator

moon breathin' in thru' my window

curtains are sighing dust of the day

still i'm not alone like all my neighbours say

time operator

take the time to take the time

to come over here

we got so much in common

seems it's hard for us to sleep

with all the razzle dazzle in the street

the man come to shut off my water

the man come to shut down my lights yesterday

i'm not one to moan

i made the bill for the telephone

now i wouldn't care if you're ugly

'cos here with the lights out i couldn't see

you just picture paul newman

and girl he looks a lot like me

time operator

take the time to take the time

to come over here

we got so much in common

seems it's hard for us to sleep

with all the razzle dazzle in the street
