Time Waits for No One Lyrics
[Chorus]
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
[Verse 1]
We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me
We've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all
[Chorus]
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
We've got to build this world together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Because time, it waits for nobody
Nobody
[Verse 2]
You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong
You know what's going on
And it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all
It seems like we've all got our backs against the wall
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
[Verse 1]
We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me
We've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all
[Chorus]
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
We've got to build this world together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Because time, it waits for nobody
Nobody
[Verse 2]
You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong
You know what's going on
And it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all
It seems like we've all got our backs against the wall
[Bridge]
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
We've got to trust in one another
Or we'll have no more future at all
[Chorus]
Because time
Waits for nobody
Waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
Best not to be friends with one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
[Outro]
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
For no one
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
We've got to trust in one another
Or we'll have no more future at all
[Chorus]
Because time
Waits for nobody
Waits for nobody
Time waits for no one
Best not to be friends with one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
[Outro]
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
For no one

What did Freddie Mercury say about "Time Waits for No One"?
Genius Answer
Freddie asked me, “How do you want me to perform this?” I said, “As a cross between Edith Piaf, Jennifer Holliday and Shirley Bassey.” He said, “Well, dear. I have all the dresses. I can do it perfectly.” […] It gave me goosebumps. I thought, This is magic.
