Kyle Maraton a.k.a. The Midnight Greetings tries his hand at ‘60s-style psych rock—a pivot from his customary indie—and the results are intriguing, to say the very least. Hypnotic, sluggish, and deliberately stationary, it’s a metaphor for life as we (now) know it

lyrics

“ If Time Is A Luxury “ The Midnight Greetings

Bought some bottles of expensive whisky
On St. Vincent Street
And as the traffic light starts blinking
That’s when I realized I’m losing all my shit
How long are we gonna be prisoners of our own device
And are you certain for a moment that you’ve the right decision in life?

Now tell me if time is a luxury
I gotta have it (oh, oh o woah)
Now tell me if time is a luxury
I gotta have it

Are you living in the moment or
The moment is living in you
I think we’re wasting too much time
Without doing something that we want
And I’m not sure if any of us here
Knows what to do with their lives
Now I’m stuck just drinking whisky on an evening and I’m out of luck

Now tell me if time is a luxury
I gotta have it (oh, oh o woah)
Now tell me if time is a luxury
I gotta have it
