Useless

Depeche Mode

Well it's about time 
It's beginning to hurt 
Time you made up your mind 
Just what is it all worth 

All my useless advice 
All my hanging around 
All your cutting down to size 
All my bringing you down 

Watch the clock on the wall 
Feel the slowing of time 
Hear a voice in the hall 
Echoing in my mind 

All your stupid ideals 
You've got your head in the clouds 
You should see how it feels 
With your feet on the ground 

Here I stand the accused 
With your fist in my face 
Feeling tired and bruised 
With the bitterest taste 

All my useless advice 
All my hanging around 
All your cutting down to size 
All my bringing you down 

All your stupid ideals 
You've got your head in the clouds 
You should see how it feels 
With your feet on the ground 

A question of time 
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 fifteen 
And you look good 
I'll take you under my wing 
Somebody should 
They've persuasive ways 
And you'll believe what they say 
It's just a question of time 
It's running out for you 
It won't be long until you'll do 
Exactly what they want you to 

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 
It's running out for you 
It won't be long until you'll do 
Exactly what they want you to 

Sometimes I don't blame them 
For wanting you 
You look good 
And 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 should be better 
It's just a question of time 
It should be better with you 
It's just a question of time
