Taking The Time - Procol Harum

I was standing on the mountain top
And staring at the sun
I was trying to act the hero's part
Not fooling anyone

I was living for the moment
Moment never came
Taking notes, stealing quotes
Trying to make a name

My time's been taken
With taking my time
By making my mind up
Yeah, to make up my mind

I was living in the country
I was trying not to freeze
I was working on the cabbage plants
Chopping down the trees

I was learning how to cook the goose
And how to milk the cow
Taking out the dog for walks
Teaching him how to bow

My time's been taken
Yes, with taking my time
Oh, I'm making my mind up
To make up my mind, yeah

Yeah, my time's been taken
Oh, with taking my time
Yeah, I'm making, I'm making my mind up
Yeah, to make up my mind

Oh I, yes I'm making my mind up
Oh, [Incomprehensible] taking my time
