Time The Avenger
(专辑: Learning To Crawl - 1984)
Nobody's perfect Not even a
perfect stranger But oh what a
gal She was such a
perfect stranger And you're the
best in your field In your office with your girls And desk and leather chair Thought that time was on your side But now it's time the
avenger Nobody's permanent Everything's on loan here Even your wife and kids Could be gone next year And with what you have left You'll be forever under pressure To support her And a
lover who looks strangely Like time the
avenger Time, time, hear the
bells chime Over the
harbor and the
city Time, one more vodka and lime To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick Nobody's perfect Not even a
perfect gent When your property took the a
train I
wonder where your manners went You were standing at the
station In your briefcase Was your aftershave and underwear Can you hear the
whistle blow? Sounds like time the
avenger Time, time, hear the
bells chime Over the
harbor and the
city Time to kill another bottle of wine To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick
