And there's fire on the mountain While the tourists take selfies on the beach And the skies look apocalyptic now Maybe these strange colours will get them more reach And I'm just so tired of the way things are I'm too tired to do anything Maybe tomorrow I'll make a change But for now I'll do some bed preaching Hashtag first world problems All swimming in your pocket We're the easy jet generation But there ain't nothing easy about this is there? And we're all so uneasy in our comfortable little bubbles Algorithms tailored for our soul And we're all just a cigarette away From rolling the next one And I'm just so tired of the way things are I'm too tired to do anything Maybe tomorrow I'll make a change But for now I'll do some bed preaching Hashtag first world problems All swimming in your pocket We're the easy jet generation But there ain't nothing easy about this is there? Y esto es así, verde como el mar que lleva la sal Es natural, caerse en la mitad y volver a andar Por eso muchacha grita todo lo que sientes Deja en casa la bombilla que no brilla Hashtag first world problems All swimming in your pocket We're the easy jet generation But there ain't nothing easy about this is there? And there's fire on the mountain Oh those flames have swallowed home whole Maybe I'll pick up a bucket of water And throw away my telephone

Waves were crashing in the bedroom The wind was howling down the hall I was dreaming about Brighton And the life I had before I was with my friend Luisa, Drinking guinness in the rain And her words tasted like ice cream On a hot summer's day, on a hot summer's day Would you take into consideration I had the best intention I was just a little clumsy with it all So many outcasts finding refuge Between the downs and the sea Homeless summer destination Where all the bar staff have degrees Ten million pictures of the west pier Still got the pebbles in my shoes A sense of humour on every corner And those Sunday Green Door blues Oh those Sunday Green Door blues Would you take into consideration I had the best intention I was just a little clumsy with it all Shaking with the windstorm Memories flooding my brain We were hungry for the future But the past it will remain Oh how the past always remains Would you take into consideration I had the best intention I was all so unintentional

Captivity 02:49
Captivity, invented by a man like me Who's greatest pride is to be free Let's all just raise the stakes, A little bit more give than take 'Cause we're still light years away Of getting the balance straight Well I've had enough, I've had enough I've had enough of my own ambition I've had enough, I've had enough I've had enough, why can't I just let me be? Captivity, hated by a man like me Who's greatest pride is to be free Let's all just raise our game A little bit more praise than blame 'Cause we're still light years away Fighting for those better days Oh we've had enough, we've had enough We've had enough of our own ambitions We've had enough, we've had enough We've had enough, why can't we just let us be?

Manteiga 03:21
E as horas que passei passado da cabeça Dentro de segundos saem da ponta da caneta Ai se eu soubesse mais cedo Ai se eu soubesse mais cedo A leveza de andar na rua, com o caderno cheio e a mente vazia Ai se eu soubesse mais cedo Ai se eu soubesse mais cedo Mas tu não sabes o que sabes até não saber E as lições que a vida dá nem sempre são para aprender Oh não, no que é que eu me fui meter Muita manteiga para o meu pão Oh não, o que é que fui dizer Estas desculpas não são em vão E o sol arde como ardia Há 200,000 anos no distinto dia Do nascer do macaco mais esperto O homo sapiens não sabe nada é certo Mas que humildade tenho eu? De supor que sei como ocorreu O que está no passado, dificilmente é desenterrado Mas tu não sabes o que sabes até não saber E as lições que a vida dá nem sempre são para aprender Oh não, no que é que eu me fui meter Muita manteiga para o meu pão Oh não, o que é que fui dizer Estas desculpas não são em vão Oh não, no que é que eu me fui meter Muita manteiga para o meu pão Oh não, o que é que fui dizer Estas desculpas não são em vão Ai se eu, ai se eu, ai se eu soubesse mais Se eu soubesse mais cedo isto não era assim

Hey you, you're not human You're my friend, my enemy, my emotion And even though it was a long time coming I was surprised when I felt my heart pumping But sometimes the heart knows when dangers looming Let's take off all our clothes and go swimming The heat of the moment will have us shivering And all our ideas in our minds come a tumblin' Down the slides of time into nothing But sometimes an empty mind can say everything Still longing, still longing for you I'm calling on my best behaviour Still longing, still longing for you I'm calling on my best behaviour All our history shouldn't matter But it still has a strong grip on my shoulders Is it your hand or mine or both together? You can't face the past because it's behind you But you can stare starry eyed into the future Still longing, still longing for you I'm calling on my best behaviour Still longing, still longing for you I'm calling on my best behaviour You can't face the past because it's behind you But you can stare starry eyed into the future You can't face the past because it's behind you But you can stare starry eyed into the future You can't face the past because it's behind you But you can stare starry eyed into the future You can't face the past because it's behind you But you can stare starry eyed into the future

Qualquer coisa no vinho, qualquer coisa no ar, qualquer coisa no mel, qualquer coisa no mar Aquele cheirinho a eucalipto, aquela mordidela de mosquito Aquele drogado educado, aquele rico malcriado Aqueles turistas perdidos, bebem vinho verde felizes Aqueles artistas que servem a mesa, até os forretas deixam gorjeta Oh amanhã é mais um dia que vai tornar se ontem Oh amanhã é mais um dia que vai tornar se ontem Qualquer coisa no vinho, qualquer coisa no ar, qualquer coisa no mel, qualquer coisa no mar Aquele carro mal estacionado, aquele pênalti anulado O portal das finanças e um labirinto sem esperanças Aquele café da manhã, aquela vizinha de sutiã Aquelas tardes de cerveja, tornam-se em noites de macieira Oh amanhã é mais um dia que vai tornar se ontem Oh amanhã é mais um dia que vai tornar se ontem Qualquer coisa no vinho, qualquer coisa no ar, qualquer coisa no mel, qualquer coisa no mar Aquela nuvem de perfume, das meninas em cardume Que mergulham no cais sodré, sem nunca molhar os pés Aquele cinema no estendal, o nosso tímido carnaval Aquele cheiro a sardinhas e haxixe, o santo antônio deve estar feliz Oh amanhã é mais um dia que vai tornar se ontem Oh amanhã é mais um dia que vai tornar se ontem Qualquer coisa no vinho, qualquer coisa no ar, qualquer coisa no mel, qualquer coisa no mar Aquela caça do gambuzino, segue me que eu sei o caminho Muitos anos a virar frangos, toma lá morangos Aquele amor em sprint, aquela pilula do dia seguinte Aquele cheirinho de carvão, torna o medroso em rei leão Os artistas de hoje em dia, sobrevivem na pandemia Toma lá para te entreteres, é só putas e recibos verdes

about

TIME FOR T Lisbon, Portugal

Described as somewhere between Bob Dylan and Fela Kuti, Time for T have always been difficult to categorise. This might be due to the eclectic backgrounds of the band (England, Portugal, Brazil and Spain) and the nomadic nature of it's members.

One could say their music consists of pensive folk songs sugarcoated in sunny melodies and groovy rhythms.
