Trivality of time

Beating that clock, flipping people off daily, verbal or physical confrontations often at the drop of a hat, a hightened sense of self importance & social status, agressively condeming those with different viewpoints, humiliating employees with snobbish distain, avoiding human connection to the weak, lonely or suffering, vigorously keeping up with the Jones; it all wont be so important at the end of life, because in the end, death is the equalizer.

Does anybody know what time it is?
By Chicago 1969
( listen carefully to the speaking deep in the background starting on the 3rd refrain, it is quite profound)

"As I was walking down the street one day
A man came up to me and asked me what the time was that was on my watch
And I said…
Does anybody really know what time it is?
Does anybody really care…care about time?
If so I can't imagine why
We've all got time enough to cry

And I was walking down the street one day
A pretty lady looked at me and said her diamond watch had stopped cold dead
And I said…
Does anybody really know what time it is?
Does anybody really care…care about time?
If so I can't imagine why
We've all got time enough to cry

As I was walking down the street one day
(People runnin' everywhere)
Pushed and shoved by people they don't know; (where to go?)
Trying to beat the clock, oh no I just don't know
don't know where I am
(Oh I don't have time to think past the last step
Have no time to look around).
And I said, yes run around and think why

Does anybody really know what time it is, I don't
Does anybody really care.. care about time?
If so I can't imagine why
We've all got time enough to die"
