lyrics

Lyrics:

Time flies by, as we spin around in space
We live our lives, like we're running in a race

1'o'clock, 2'o'clock, 3'o'clock, 4'o'clock
5'o'clock, 6'o'clock, 7'o'clock, 8'o'clock
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Sat-ur-day
30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, Noughties
Stone age, Bronze age, Iron age, Middle age
Atomic age, The Space age

This quest for speed, it brings me down
Gonna live my life underground
Don't wanna be the winner of the human race

If I could stop the - stop the - stop the -
stop the - stop the world
If I could turn back - turn back - turn back -
turn back - turn back time

If I could do it again, would I do it all the same
Now I can see, should've played a different game

1'o'clock, 2'o'clock, 3'o'clock, 4'o'clock
5'o'clock, 6'o'clock, 7'o'clock, 8'o'clock
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Sat-ur-day
30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, Noughties
Stone age, Bronze age, Iron age, Middle age
Atomic age, The Space age

Running forwards, falling back
Never moving in actual fact
Don't wanna be the winner of a loser's race

If I could stop the - stop the - stop the -
stop the - stop the world
If I could turn back - turn back - turn back -
turn back - turn back time

Stop the world, press the pause, let me off
Catch a lift and get it right, next time around

If I could stop the - stop the - stop the -
stop the - stop the world
If I could turn back - turn back - turn back -
turn back - turn back time

Stop the world, stop the world, stop the world.....
