Saint and Kings - Stop Time

Fake-jazz ballad, slightly prurient and hopefully neither too explicit nor plaintive: use only as directed

World, you're moving too fast for the kid.
I try to catch up & wonder just what you did.
I got so many questions & I want to ask this:
Where are we going & what are we doing in this handbasket?

Can we stop time, find a little button & push up on it gently until the world stands still?
Stop time: Head down to the river & bend down to the water & drink my fill?
Stop time: Find a pair of pillows & put my face against them & drift off to sleep?
Stop time?
I am not demanding so if you're not understanding, it's not that deep.

World, you're moving too quick for my head.
I try to catch up & wonder just what you said.
I got so few answers that I'd really love to know
what's the sense of all of this progress if we don't get where we want to go?
