NO TIME
The Monkees

[Ode to Trump!!!]

(Sung by the brilliant Mickey Dolenz)

What did you expect?

No time, no time for you
I got no time, baby
Got lots of better things to do

Runnin' from the risin' heat
To find a place to hide
The grass is always greener
Growin' on the other side

No time, no time for you
I got no time, baby
Got lots of better things to do

No time, no time for you
I got no time, baby
Got lots of better things to do

No time, no time for you
I got no time, baby
Got lots of better things to do

(RIP Davey Jones!)
