In a chest full of nuts talking truth and politics,
Locked up tighter than a cracked magician and his bag of tricks,
I got one on the drums smashing shells and spinning sticks,
Another nut on the bass hitting lines that funk up shit,
Two nuts far away as guitarists often are,
And a pair on the mic telling stories round the fire,
Stories round the fire.

All that matters is the minute the moment and all that’s in it,
(Crushed and battered)
All that matters is the time that it takes to make your mind,
(Spread too thin)
All that matters is the minute the moment and all that’s in it,
(My own space)
All that matters is the time that it takes to make you mind,
Well make your mind up.

What's up with the world,
If we're all that’s left?
I said the last seeds of wisdom,
In the curtain closing minute.
Left with no option,
And no path to follow.
Tell me, what will you choose now?
Motherfucker will you die,
Will you spit or will you swallow?

All that matters is the minute the moment and all that’s in it,
(Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha)
All that matters is the time that it takes to make your mind,
(Well make your mind up)
All that matters is the minute the moment and all thats in it,
(Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha)
All that matters is the time that it takes to make your mind,
Well make your mind up.

Crushed and Battered,
Spread too thin,
Your snug straight jacket is a tailored fit. (X2)

Same chest minutes later now your nuts have worms,
A little rotten but still tasty as far as protein is concerned,
Still got one on the drums though he may need to catch his breath,
Another nut on the Bass surely going insane,
Two nuts already there as guitarists often are,
And a pair on the mic leaving footprints in the fire,
Footprints in the fire.

SOLO

(You gotta stomp 'em in the nuts X4)

All that matters is the minute the moment and all that’s in it,
(Crushed and battered)
All that matters is the time that it takes to make your mind,
Well make your mind up.
All that matters is the minute the moment and all that’s in it,
(Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha)
All that matters is the time that it takes to make your mind,
Well make your mind up.
