Pins instead of medals on his coat

Where are you walking, I've seen you walking
Have you been there before?
Walk down your doorsteps, youll take some more steps
What did you take them for?
Theres a private in my boat and he wears
Pins instead of medals on his coat
There's a chicken in my nest and she wont
Lay until Ive given her my best
At her request she asks for nothing
You get nothing in return
If you want she brings you water
If you dont then you will burn

You go through changes, it may seem strange
Is this what youre put here for?
You think you're happy and you are happy
Thats what you're happy for
Theres a man who cant decide if he should
Fight for what his father thinks is right
There are people wearing frowns wholl screw you up
But they would rather screw you down
At my request I ask for nothing
You get nothing in return
If you're nice shell bring me water
If you're not then I will burn

This is the time and life that I am living
And I'll face each day with a smile
For the time that Ive been givens such a little while
and the things that I must do consist of more than style
there are places that I am going
there'll be time for you to start all over

This is the only thing that I am sure of
And that all that lives is gonna die
And there'll always be some people here to wonder why
And for every happy hello, there will be good-bye
Therell be time for you to put yourself on

Everything I've seen needs rearranging
And for anyone who thinks its strange
Then you should be the first to want to make this change
And for everyone who thinks that life is just a game
Do you like the part youre playing

I see your picture
It's in the same old frame
We meet again
You look so lovely
You with the same old smile
Stay for a while
I need you so, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if you take it easy
I'm still teethin
I wanna love you, but
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This is the time and this is the time and
It is time, time, time, time, time, time, time, time, time...
