Step in Time Songtext

Brush away the dirt and soot
Brush away your tears
Cobwebs that aren't swept away
Hang around for years

In all weathers, up all hours
We can see for miles
Our idea of heaven is
A night out on the tiles

We may look a motley crew (We may look a motley crew)
Smudged with tar and grime (Smudged with tar and grime)
But when you need a helping hand (But when you need a helping hand)

We try to step in, Try to step in
Try to step in, Just in time

We will step in (Step in time)

We will step in (Step in time)

Never need a reason, never need a rhyme

We will step in, step in time

Over the rooftops step in time
Over the rooftops step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Over the rooftops step in time

Watch where you step but step in time
Watch where you step but step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Watch where you step but step in time

Kick your knees up, step in time
Kick your knees up, step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Kick your knees up, step in time

Childhood is a step in time
Parenthood's the same

Never miss a chance to get it right

Don't it seem a perfect crime
Don't it seem a shame

When the steps aren't going
As smoothly as they might

That's when we step in, step in time
That's when we step step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
That's when we step in, step in time

Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin

Link your elbows, step in time
Link your elbows, step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Link your elbows, step in time
Link your elbows, step in time

Step in time, step step in time

Just remember when you're low
Feeling in the wars
Someone's up your chimney

And it isn't Santa Claus
If you need us, if you don't (If you need us, if you don't)
Doesn't make much odds (Doesn't make much odds)
We'll be watching over you (We'll be watching over you)
Brushes, brooms and
Brushes, brooms and
Brushes, brushes, brooms and

And rods

Over the rooftops
Over the rooftops
Over the rooftops
Over the rooftops

Over the rooftops step in time
Over the rooftops step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme

Over the rooftops step in time

Link your elbows, step in time
Link your elbows, step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Link your elbows, step in time

Kick your knees up, step in time
Kick your knees up, step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Kick your knees up, step in time

Oh step in time, step in time
Step step step
Step in time, step in time
Step step step
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme

If you kick your knees up
Kick your knees up
Kick your knees up
Kick your knees up

Step step step step step step step step step
Step step step step step step step step step
Never need a reason if you step in time
