Name: Seán Callaghan and John Callaghan - Waste Of Time
Duration: P00H03M49S
Description: This is unique among my songs because I actually began writing this on a guitar - not an instrument I can play! It's a very early one and my dad's favourite of mine (along with Emote Control). So I had an impromptu recording session of his guitar playing. That's him introducing the song too.

about

This is unique among my songs because I actually began writing this on a guitar - not an instrument I can play! It's a very early one and my dad's favourite of mine (along with Emote Control). So I had an impromptu recording session of his guitar playing. That's him introducing the song too.

lyrics

Took me a lifetime just to write this line
And every artist does it just for themself
And all the friends of mine are sick of the sound

Another song, another waste of time
I have a friend who asks me why don't I change
So I can find someone and settle down
There must be more to life than clinging and making
Another life another waste of time

I don't really want to screw you up
I don't really want to nail you down
It's your life and you can do what you want to
I don't want another row, another waste of time

Another lyric, it's the same as the first verse
You don't need telling we grow up too fast
You're a minute older and what have I told you?
Another song, another waste of time

Another song, another waste of time
