A Question of Time - Live - Birmingham N.E.C - April 10, 1986

I've got to get to you first
Before they do
It's just a question of time
Before they lay their hands on you

And make you just like the rest
I've got to get to you first

It's just a question of time

Well, now you're only 15
And you look good
I'll take you under my wing
Or somebody should

They've persuasive ways
And you'll believe what they say

It's just a question of time
And it's running out for you
It won't be long until you'll do
Exactly what they want you to
Yeah

Are you alright?

I can see them now
Hanging around
To mess you up
To strip you down

And have their fun
With my little one

It's just a question of time
And it's running out for you
It won't be long until you'll do
Exactly what they want you to
It won't be long until you'll do
Exactly what they want you to
Yeah

Sometimes I don't blame them
For wanting you
You look good
Well, they need something to do

Until I look at you
And then I condemn them
I know my kind
What goes on in our minds

It's just a question of time
It's just a question of time
It's just a question of time (it should be better)
It's just a question of time (it should be better with you)

It's just a question of time, hey (it should be better)
It's just a question of time (it should be better with you)
It's just a question of time (it should be better)
It's just a question of time (it should be better with you)
It's just a question of time

Thank you
Thanks a lot
