Just Killing Time

Spending time under an oak tree Reading 'Falling Down' On a summer afternoon Just killing time Eating ice cream from Scoops ice cream shop And laughing with a friend About the boys from class Just killing time Eating dinner with my family Having fun and laughing Telling jokes and all Just killing time But now That oak tree isn't there No books that i can read The summer afternoons seem duller now. Time is killing me That ice cream now is just to cold to eat My friends have all moved out of town No one to laugh with or about Time is killing me The dinner table is empty No more fun and laughing No one telling jokes and all Time is killing me STOP! Its time to go a different way To do something in that spear time Time only kills us But ding something useful for a change Will be simple Just killing time
