Increasingly being ‘busy’ has become equated with living the good life; working hard, playing hard. This song questions that idea and urges us to use our limited time ‘wisely’

lyrics

We’re so busy, just rushing about
We haven’t any patience, we’re all stressing out
We’re so busy we don’t have time to wait
Manic activity is now our natural state

We’re so busy
And doesn’t time fly
We should use it wisely
Before we die

We’re so busy and isn’t it funny
We waste so much time just chasing money
We’re so busy and yet we’re all in debt
Making us so busy is the best con yet

We’re so busy
And doesn’t time fly
We should use it wisely
Before we die

We’re so busy we’ve no time to sit and stare
Except at endless screens located everywhere
We’re so busy we don’t have time to blink
Some of us are happy that there’s no time to think

We’re so busy
And doesn’t time fly
We should use it wisely
Before we die
