Repeat this pattern throughout. The speed doubles for verses 3 and 4 (the pattern stays
the same), then returns to the original speed for the final verse.

These lyrics are as correct as I could get them; no one else has posted them before.

Lyrics:

No further, no further
Your body does say
Your feet can no longer carry you
On your way
If you must continue forward
I fear it might be alone
For the people you came with
They don't move so slow
So slow

No other, no other
Pointless action you shall make
You'll consider every gesture
And just what it would take
Still you always were for conservation
Even in your prime
You would never waste at all about
A body such as mine
Such as mine

So faster and faster
The world seems to go
Falling behind and no fault
Of your own
Roll the windows down
Put your feet upon the peddle
Drive about the town
As if you're going for the gold

Still faster and faster
The world seems to spin
Haven't you heard
Time will always win?
Still we're always brave
Yeah we're always brave
The longer I'm gasping I will have to stay
Still we're always brave
Yeah we're always brave
The longer I'm gasping I will have to stay

Don't bother, don't bother    X2

Don't bother, don't bother
Yourself with this news
Your children have always
Been capable to
Go to-and-fro
Take themselves about the town
They know how to dance
With their feet upon the ground
For though you bought the dancing shoes
Provided the beat
You never did take
Them around on your feet
On your feet
