In motion, slow motion, here comes despair - there goes my hook line.
It’s something for nothing. It’s in my cards and in my star sign.

Where’s the glimmer of hope? Where’s the flicker of doubt?
Where’s the reason to bring the change about?
I’ve been looking for look. I’ve been looking for charm.
I’ve been looking for new but I’m not looking for love.

I’m not looking for love. I’m just playing for time.
Don’t go wasting your love. Don’t go wasting your time.

You’re thinking. What you thinking? That thought is always on my mind.
Believe me, believe me. I’m not man enough to make the bass line.

Where’s the king of the croon? Where’s the prince of the rhyme?
Is he singing in tune and playing in time?
I’m not getting the breaks, still no change in my luck.
And I’m still on my own. I’m not looking for love.

I’m not looking for love. I’m just playing for time.
Don’t go wasting your love. Don’t go wasting your time.

When the motive is fame the emotion is fear.
I’ve been planning to ring the changes here.
If we’re counting the cost make a mark on my slate.
I’ve watching the form. I’ve been watching that space.

I’m not looking for love. I’m just playing for time.
Don’t go wasting your love. Don’t go wasting your time.
