I've got to get to you first

Before they do

It's just a question of time

Before they lay their hands on you

And make you just like the rest

I've got to get to you first

It's just a question of time



Well now you're only fifteen

And you look good

I'll take you under my wing

Somebody should

They've persuasive ways

And you'll believe what they say



It's just a question of time

It's running out for you

It won't be long

Until you'll do

Exactly what they want you to



I can see them now



Hanging around

To mess you up

To strip you down

And have their fun

With my little one



It's just a question of time

It's running out for you



It won't be long

Until you'll do

Exactly what they want you to



Sometimes I don't blame them

For wanting you

You look good

And they need something to do

Until I look at you

And then I condemn them

I know my kind

What goes on in our minds



It's just a question of time



It should be better

It's just a question of time

It should be better with you

It's just a question of time
