Lyrics for All the Time as interpreted by kevin

All the Time Lyrics
All the time
Evertime I need it
What's the time?
I'd say the time is right
Here's to me
Let's find another reason
Down the hatch
And a bad attitude salud

Wasting time, wasting time down a bum fuck road
And I don't know where the hell it'll go
Heirlooms and huffing fumes I'm picking up the pace
And I'm gonna smash it straight into a wall

All the time
A "New Year's Resolution"
How soon that we forget loving every minute
Live it up on another let down salud

Promises, promises, it was all set in stone
Cross my heart and hope to die
Sugar fix, dirty tricks and a trick question
Guess I should have read between the lines

Having the time of my life
Watching the clock tick
Having the time of my life
Watching the clock tick
All the time
Where did all the time go?
It's too late to say goodnight
Time flies when you're having fun
Times up when you work like a dog salud

finding a reason to drink and party is so damn easy that after all the promises to quit, you let yourself down. but oh well. let's drink to it!

uber catchy!!! i guess it IS about wasting your life, but the melody sugests he is enjoying (up-beat and happy). hmmm...

Also a great song to listen to verry early in the moring, when you need a bit of a wake-me-up xD

luv this bit:
"Promises, promises, it was all set in stone
Cross my heart and hope to die
Sugar fix, dirty tricks and a trick question
Guess I should have read between the lines"

I love this song. amd i know the following is NOT the meaning but this is something my friend asked me when i had the quote "having the time of my life watching the clock tick." he thought it ment having a good time in a relationship until the unavoidable break up. hmm and i know thats not the meaning in this song but just thought i should post that..

good song. I'd have to say it means how he wants to get off the drugs or cigs or whatever and he can't.

Wasting time, wasting time down a bum fuck road
And I don't know where the hell it'll go

Means he thinks that trying to get off it is a waste of time and he doesnt know if it will work.

All the time
A "New Year's Resolution"
How soon that we forget loving every minute
Live it up on another let down salud

Best line. Once again, totally forgetting that new years resolution that billie probably made to stop the drugs or whatever.

This like a lot of songs on nimrod (hitchin a ride, walking alone, etc) is about aloholism.
This song is about wanting to be drunk all the time. It sounds like he is having fun but the fact that he has made new years resolutions and things like that, "another let down" means he dosent really want to be an alcoholic. He wishes he could get away from it, but he is drunken so he dosent care. "having the time of my life, watching the clock tick" means he is drunk so he can have fun doing nothing really.
"salud" is somthing you say right before you take a shot of alcohol, same with "down the hatch"
