Old Mister Time |
He looked funny |
The children called him the scarecrow |
An old raincoat |
And baggy trousers and sneakers |
He found at the dump |
Oh, but if you bothered to look |
There was something behind the rags |
Oh there was a look in his eyes |
It was something you’d never forget |
He lived badly |
A broken shack on the railway |
An old moggy |
The only one who replied |
When he talked to the walls |
Oh we didn’t understand |
We were fooled by the dirt on his face |
Oh we were human then |
We were searching behind his disgrace |
Why don’t you leave me alone |
Why don’t you go to your homes |
Why don’t you keep to yourselves |
I’m tellin you |
Why don’t you leave me alone |
You’re never gonna realise |
When all you do is criticise |
You’re never gonna make it work |
You never seem to get enough |
You crumble when it’s getting rough |
You’re never gonna make it work |
I’m tellin' you there’ll come a day |
You’re gonna blow yourselves away |
It’s wrong that I should interfere |
I just get in the way |
Why don’t you leave me alone |
Why don’t you go to your homes |
Why don’t you keep to yourselves |
I’m tellin you |
Why don’t you leave me alone |
Deep into the night |
He was working by the light |
Of the candle by his bed |
On the theory in his head |
He was building from the junk |
That he rescued from the dump |
And when he turned the power on |
There was a sound and he was gone |
Oh in the gray of the dawn |
We discovered the thing he was working on |
Oh we didn’t understand |
The future was Old Mister Time |
Future was Old Mister Time |
Future was Old Mister Time |
Future was Old Mister Time |
Old Mister Time (Mister Time, Mister Time…) |
Old Mister Time (Mister Time, Mister Time…) |
Old Mister Time (Mister Time, Mister Time…) |
