The song Short of Time is performed by John Cale .
Wasting time, we wait for answers
Every time we throw the dice
Breaking down all delusions
Wasting time
Finding time, we take no chances
Treating time, and pulling punches
Losing time ruins the dance
Wasting time, wasting time
Real time gives no comfort
Space and time, planets turn
Crying time, we make the moments
Take their time
Time is always on the menu
Killing time, there is no choice
Wasting time is like
Old helpless keeping time
