Interviewer: Was it hard to build up the solo speed in 'Dead On Time'?
"I don't think so. That was something I was quite pleased with, but really nobody else was. It's something which nobody ever mentions very much. Fat Bottomed Girls I thought was okay, but fairly banal. I thought people would be much more interested in 'Dead On Time', but it didn't really get that much airplay. The explosions at the end are a real thunderstorm which occurred when we were in the south of France. We put a tape recorder outside."

Lyrics
Fool always jumping never happy where you land
Fool got my bus'ness make your living where you can
Hurry down the highway
Hurry down the road
Hurry past the people staring
Hurry hurry hurry hurry
Leave on time leave on time
Never got your ticket but you leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
Gonna get your ticket but you leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
Put it in your pocket but you never can tell
Leave on time leave on time
Shake that rattle gotta leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
Fight your battle but you leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
Never got a minute no you never got a minute
No you never never got oh no matter
Fool got no business hanging round and telling lies
Fool you got no reasons but you got no compromise
Stamping on the ceiling hammering on the walls
Gotta get out gotta get out gotta get
Oh you know I'm going crazy
Leave on time leave on time
Gotta get ahead but you leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
Gotta head on ahead but you leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
You're running in the red but you never can tell
Honey honey where's my money where's my money
Wanna get away wanna get away
Leave you leave you leave you
Leave on time leave on time
Gotta get rich gonna leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
But you can't take it with you when you leave on time
Leave on time leave on time
Got to keep yourself alive gotta leave on time
Gotta leave on time leave on time
Dead on time
'You're Dead'
