[Verse 1]
My little brother's married at twenty-two
My mother's seeing someone new
And I'm at home, looking after our cats
My job pays me every second week
Give me a day 'til I'm back in the green
I can't help it but I think I like it

[Chorus]
'Cause time moves slowly
When there's no money
And I have nothing to do

[Verse 2]
My baby's out there twice a week
Singing songs that are never about me
We can't marry even if we want to
But if we moved in, could we take the heat?
Living in two homes really ain't for me
But it's better than rent or a mortgage

[Chorus]
'Cause time moves slowly
When there's no money
And I have nothing to do
'Cause time moves slowly
When there's no money
And I have nothing to lose
[Outro]
(Time moves slowly
There's no money
I have nothing to lose)
'Cause time moves slowly
When there's no money
And I have nothing to lose
