This Time Lyrics by Sam Ryder

There’s Nothing But Space, Man! (Super Ultra Deluxe)

2022

[Intro]
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na (Oh-ah)

[Verse 1]
Wave goodbye to all your friends when you made it big, mm
Got a big old desk and a door with your name engraved on it
You're never satisfied unless you're chomping at the bit (Oh yeah)
You got the keys to a penthouse suite with an ice-cold bed in it

[Chorus]
When you're least expecting it
Maybe somewhere down the line
Life will catch up to you sometime, mm
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na (Oh yeah, ooh-ah)

[Verse 2]
Got the gold wrist watch and stocks in bio-fuel, woo-ooh
Yeah you're makin' it rain but the flood's gonna soak you through (Oh, ah yeah)
And that dry champagne can leave a bitter taste
Oh, when you're back in your college days
Eating macaroni off a paper plate

[Chorus]
When you're least expecting it
Maybe somewhere down the line
Life will catch up to you sometime
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na (Oh woah, oh yeah)

[Bridge]
When it's all plain sailing
When your feet don't touch the ground
That's when your life comes back around, yeah
So careful when you climb the ladder
'Cause you don't know how high it goes
It's lonely at the top, or so the saying goes

[Verse 3]
Lost your trust fund and that trophy wife, mm
Her smile never hid the fact, she wanted much more out of life
And every one that you chewed up to feed your appetite
Oh safe to say, you're a castaway in your lonely paradise

[Chorus]
I bet you weren't expecting it
Buddy, now it's the end of the line
Life has caught up to you this time, yeah
Oh, life has caught up to you this time

[Outro]
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, life has caught up to you this time
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Yeah, woah, life has caught up to you this time
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, life has caught up, caught up, caught up, caught up to you
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na)
Oh, life has caught up to you this time
