[Verse 1]
This time each day I do a waltz down the hall
My ceiling shakes like a choir's up above

[Chorus]
Just remember when I cut you down for the second time
It happens to the better of the brightest minds
And remember when I cut you down for the third time
It happens to the better of the brightest minds

[Verse 2]
And these quiet hours I don't know how to talk
I'll play your game the rhythm don't suit me at all

[Chorus]
Just remember when I cut you down
It happens to the better of the brightest minds
And remember when I cut you down for the third time
It happens to the better of the brightest minds

[Bridge]
My, how she comes and goes
Here we are, disrobed
Full of yawns and sighs, yes
You're admired, but I don't know why

My, how she comes and goes
It's a shame, it's such a crying shame
Yeah, you're admired, but I don't know why

[Outro]
This time
This time
This time, each day
