Home Brew Lyrics
"Time Don't Wait"

(Verse 1 - Tom Scott)
'Cause time don't wait
We on a world tour, with my hum and my man,
two dozen in the chilly bin and one in my hand, with no plan,
whole band crammed up in the van, with no fan just fam,
livin' off o' the land like Bear Grylls, sellin' tea like sellin' P,
with bare skills, turnin' melody to celery then turn that,
into yellow E and LSD, sniffin' like I had a allergy for reality, alright.
This another Saturday night, havin' the best time that I ever had
of my life travellin' like light through space leave no trace,
pack the suitcase, get paid, jet next day, and
if he don't pay then we don't play, just pack our shit and relocate.
I ain't got no money but I'll be okay, even though I ain't slept
in three whole days, I say

(Hook)
Time don't wait for no one
So I'm packing my bags
And I, and I, and I'll be gone tomorrow
And I don't know when I'll be back (so long, so long, so long)
See I've got to live my life the way that I want
And you know (you know) that I will (I will)
Miss you when I'm gone, but time don't wait

(Verse 2 - Tom Scott)
So we takin' every night like a Broadway performer
A horse before four but still rockin' like ___________
Still perform full 'til they call for encore,
then give them four more, then cord the mic cord up.
It's like, profession, twenty four seven,
as soon as the jet gets in we text the sound tech then
check the mic, check in check out, next second,
livin' like Def Leppard, drinkin' like Led Zeppelin all night!

Horse life, Beanstalk climbing
Fly Buys sky high goodbye North Island I'm leavin',
no time for high horse ridin', and I'm speedin,
cos life's short like Paul Simon, so I'm livin' mine.
It's time to hit the dirt road, slap hands with the fans
singin' in the first row, like chur bro, we get out, that's that.
Bags packed, blow the gunk out my nose and we gapped.

(Hook)

(Verse 3 - Tom Scott)
We go Christchurch, Dunedin, MP, out to PS,
we go Queenstown, for the seasons,
get out to Great Barrier for the weekend.
Doin' it for H-Town, and ______ and
Mount Taranaki, Mount Vic, and Mount Eden,
it's goin' out to every town that we breathe in,
for this place that we all call New Zealand,
time don't wait!
