Quittin' Time

(album: Dangerous: The Double Album - 2021)

Putting in that overtime and coming up with nothing
Sure as hell ain't for lack of trying
There's no use wasting time in fighting for something
When you see that white flag a flying
Can you hear that whistle blow?

There's all day thinking time
And all night drinking time
And time to sing or time to find
If rhyme has a reason
Time to pack it in and stay down
Pack it up and walk away now
And give it one more day or call it a season
I can tell by the tears not in your eyes
It's quitting time

There's something to be said for saying what needs saying
A suitcase says it all to me
Before the credits roll just know I always loved you
So we wrote that famous final scene
Where you turn and walk out on me

There's all day thinking time
And all night drinking time
And time to sing or time to find
If rhyme has a reason
Time to pack it in and stay down
Pack it up and walk away now
Give it one more day or call it a season
I can tell by the tears not in your eyes
It's quitting time
It's quitting time

Every start has an end
Every first has a last
Every now has a then
Every future has a past
And sometimes you want it back

There's all day thinking time
And all night drinking time
And time to sing or time to find
If rhyme has a reason
Time to pack it in and stay down
Pack it up and walk away now

Give it one more day or call it a season
I can tell by the tears not in your eyes
It's quitting time
It's quitting time
