Song lyrics

I'd never bite off more then i could chew
But then she came and bit me
I'd never bite off more then i could chew
But then she bit my leg
She said
Don't wanna work
I wanna play
And live my life like it was Sunday
The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week
And I'm a freak but

We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today

My body's tired my soul's excited
And I wish that I was gifted
My body's tired my soul's excited
And i wish i had some spunk
She said
I wanna run i wanna hide
And leave this place
Just like it left me
The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through
And that's the truth but

We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today
We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today (no time for one another)

Well this is our time
Well this is our time
Well this is our time
And our place
History I
History I
History I
Can't erase
Well this is our time
Well this is our time
Well this is our time
And our place

We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today
We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today (no time for one another)

There's no time for one another

Prisoners of today

I never bite off more than I could chew
But then she came and bit me
I never bite off more than I could chew
But then she bit my leg
She said don't wanna work I wanna play
and live my life like it was sunday
The only problem is that sunday only comes
now once a week and i'm a freak but...

We're breaking up the city
no time for wasting away
so tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today

My body's tight my soul's excited
and I wish that I was gifted
My body's tight my souls excited
and I wish I had some spunk
She said I wanna run I wanna hide
and leave this place Just like it left me
The only problem is I need to find the ball to follow through
and that's the truth but...

we're breaking up the city
no time for wasting away
so tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today

no time for one another
no time for one another
no time for one another
no time for one another...

But this is our time this is our time this is our time and our space
History I history I history I can't erase
This is our time this is our time this is our Time and our space
History I history I history I can't erase

we're breaking up the city
no time for wasting away
so tell me why should we stay
Prisoners of today

no time for one another
no time for one another
no time for one another
no time for one another...
