Time Out For Fun

(album: Oh No! It's Devo! - 1982)

Hello. This is Devo.
We would like to say things go both ways.
New ideas, stupid moves, nightmares or dreams come true.
Mucho work minus play, tension mounts in a twisted face.
Dark clouds in a crystal ball, tension mounts in a foreign place.
The screw turns, someone calls:

TIME OUT FOR FUN!

So you're living under the gun.
Circumstances have you on the run.
A doctor frowns, you feel bad.
Take this! You've just been had!

Don't you lose it now listen to us:
EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT!
Take a break take some time;
EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT!
Don't you lose it remember to take
TIME OUT FOR FUN!

So your life has just begun.
Somebody else is saying that it's done.
Nurses whisper, others grin
Something's funny at your expense again!

Don't you lose it now listen to us:
EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT!
Take a break take some time;
EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT!
Don't you lose it remember to take
TIME OUT FOR FUN!
