About Got The Time

This was originally a new wave song by Joe Jackson on his 1979 Look Sharp! debut Album. Thrash metal band Anthrax's metallic cover of this became their biggest hit at the time in the UK beating the #20 placement of "I'm The Man". Six months later it was usurped by the #14 charting of "Bring The Noise," their collaboration with Public Enemy's Chuck D. The song is about the way so many of us are caught up in a desperate rush to get things done and how time so often seems to be against us. .

Got The Time Lyrics

[00:19.57] Wake up, got another day to get
[00:21.32] Through now, got another man to see
[00:23.33] Gotta call him on the telephone, way-o
[00:25.24] Gotta find a piece of paper
[00:27.03] Sit down, got another letter to write
[00:28.99] Think hard, gotta get a letter just right
[00:30.99] Little ringing on the telephone, woah no
[00:32.89] Gotta write another letter
[00:34.77] No such thing as tomorrow
[00:36.76] All we want (two three go!)
[00:38.14] Time!
[00:38.54] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[00:40.25] Time!
[00:40.42] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[00:42.07] Time!
[00:42.38] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[00:45.00] Ticking in my head
[00:46.84] Ticking in my head
[00:48.70] Ticking in my head
[00:51.64]
[00:56.97] If I tell you what I'm doing today
[00:58.76] Will you shut up and get out of my way?
[01:00.67] Someone asked me what the time is, I don't know
[01:02.57] Only know I gotta go now
[01:04.43] No time, tryin' to get a watch repaired
[01:06.30] No time, never got a thing to wear
[01:08.23] Little ringing on the telephone, woah no
[01:10.10] Hear a ringing in my head now
[01:12.02] No such thing as tomorrow
[01:14.03] All we want (two three go!)
[01:15.44] Time!
[01:15.94] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[01:17.51] Time!
[01:17.76] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[01:19.48] Time!
[01:19.66] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[01:22.39] Ticking in my head
[01:24.17] Ticking in my head
[01:26.05] Ticking in my head
[01:28.95]
[02:19.18] No such thing as tomorrow
[02:21.04] All we want (two three go!)
[02:22.42] Time!
[02:22.82] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[02:24.49] Time!
[02:24.67] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[02:26.24] Time!
[02:26.56] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[02:29.25] Ticking in my head
[02:29.94] Time!
[02:30.00] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[02:31.66] Time!
[02:31.92] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[02:33.48] Time!
[02:33.73] Got the time tick, tick, tickin' in my head
[02:36.38] Ticking in my head
[02:38.21] Ticking in my head
[02:40.04] Ticking in my head
[02:40.93]
