Time Bomb |
I’m sittin' on a time-bomb |
The world is like a time-bomb |
And it’s about to explode… |
There once was a young boy… a modestly done boy |
Who seemed pretty normal on sight |
Wantin' for nothin'…but wantin' for somethin' |
But mama made everything right |
Inside her protection he learned of rejection |
By a world that was not quite his own |
He took his reward in a double-edged sword |
Now the poor boy is always alone |
He built himself a time-bomb |
A ticking, talking time-bomb |
It’s about to explode under me |
His world is like a time-bomb |
A walking, talking time-bomb |
It’s about to explode under me |
Now off on a new day… alone in her own way |
A young girl waits by the phone |
Longin' for daddy… she's missin' him badly |
She knows that he’s not comin' home |
So down by the levee… her heart weighin' heavy |
She knows that she’s got to break free |
She falls when she sees him… she knows how to please him |
They can’t see the woods for the trees |
She built herself a time-bomb |
A walking, talking time-bomb |
It’s about to explode under me |
She’s sittin' on a time-bomb |
A ticking, talking time-bomb |
It’s about to explode under me |
You gotta have faith late into the night |
If there’s another day… try to make it right |
Find another way… shine another light |
So now they’re both older… their world growin' colder |
And nothin' appears as it seemed |
They look to their future… and the wounds that they nurture |
And try to hold on to their dreams |
This terrible twosome have really been through some |
Scenes that they both know by heart |
Mem’ries that jail them… support that has failed them |
And they laugh but it tears them apart |
We’re sittin' on a time-bomb |
A ticking, talking time-bomb |
It’s about to explode under me |
This world is like a time-bomb |
A walking, talking time-bomb |
It’s about to explode under me |
The world is like a time-bomb |
A ticking, talking time-bomb |
We’re sittin' on a time-bomb and it’s about to explode |
I see the enemy… and he looks like me |
I see the enemy… and he looks like me |
Looks a lot like you--looks a lot like me |
Looks a lot like you--looks a lot like me |
