Bio 101
I need time to myself too
But some of us have to choose
Three ounces of moments leak out every month
Excuse my perspective on time and it's rough
You say it'll happen when it happens, if it happens
But some of us have to choose
I'm not waiting for you
You're not essential
You're not my cue
I'm not waiting for you
Not this time
I've got to choose
You want to let it unfold
But only your looks go when you get old
I've got to know what I want
I can do this without you the pressure is off
I'm counting my moons
I've got other things that I'm counting too
Degrees and positions, letters next to my name
How does it fit, I've got to choose
I'm an hourglass
I'm not waiting for you
You're not essential
You're not my cue
I'm not waiting for you
Not this time
I've got to choose
(Your) life's open ended
No time like the present
You got time and you spend it
I'm a lifeline with deadlines
Your ingredients convenient
But I won't stay cause I need it
I'm an hourglass
With an hour less
But some of us have to choose
Three ounces of moments leak out every month
Excuse my perspective on time and it's rough
You say it'll happen when it happens, if it happens
But some of us have to choose
I'm not waiting for you
You're not essential
You're not my cue
I'm not waiting for you
Not this time
I've got to choose
You want to let it unfold
But only your looks go when you get old
I've got to know what I want
I can do this without you the pressure is off
I'm counting my moons
I've got other things that I'm counting too
Degrees and positions, letters next to my name
How does it fit, I've got to choose
I'm an hourglass
I'm not waiting for you
You're not essential
You're not my cue
I'm not waiting for you
Not this time
I've got to choose
(Your) life's open ended
No time like the present
You got time and you spend it
I'm a lifeline with deadlines
Your ingredients convenient
But I won't stay cause I need it
I'm an hourglass
With an hour less
