How To Build a Time Machine |
| If I have understood correctly |
| Velocity equals the distance traveled |
| Divided by time |
| I’ve read every word ever printed |
| On quantum physics |
| And now it is time to try |
| I read your book |
| I found your notes |
| I dusted this thing off and turned on the key |
| The rumbling motors |
| The buzzing incredible gadgets |
| The hissing electricity |
| And now the moment has come |
| I’m traveling back in time |
| They’re running down the hall |
| I’ve started the countdown |
| They want me to stop |
| But I don’t think so |
| I’m ready to go |
| Let’s get the job done |
| Beyond the paradoxical |
| All the lights are dazzling |
| Pass the planes, and trains, and satellite navigation |
| Pass the time I spent today |
| Through the nearest wormhole |
| In a stunning ball of white |
| The light explodes and lands on you |
| And you’re five |
| Always running away |
| And I was dying to kiss you |
| And I |
| I don’t want to cry |
| I don’t want to see where the moving van takes you |
| So I travel on |
| Beyond the stars |
| At one hundred and eighty-six thousand miles per second |
| I can fly |
| Forward a few years |
| To nineteen-hundred and seventy-nine |
| I caught a glimpse of the sky |
| They’re coming down the road |
| They’re coming to get me |
| I never should have come |
| I hide the time machine |
| I’m running down the hall |
| I think I’m in my old house |
| Pass the place where I grew up |
| Number nine Lake Road |
| Pass the swimming pool |
| And Mable park |
| And past Troy Clifford’s house |
| To the Argonaut |
| To the fish and chip shop |
| Out the back and down the road |
| To the place I got beat up |
| Hey, put that rock down |
| Can’t you see he’s half your size? |
| Hey, he looks familiar |
| Oh my god, he’s me, age nine |
| Put your shoes on |
| And run away from here |
| I can’t get involved |
| This is all so weird |
| I’m meeting myself |
| This is all so clear |
| All the things I’ve lost |
| All the people I’ve hurt |
| All the times I lied |
| All the moments wasted |
| All I never did |
| All the dreams I had |
| All the things I would change |
| I can change them |
| All the things I’ve lost |
| All the people I’ve hurt |
| All the times I lied |
| All the moments wasted |
| I’m gonna make right |
| What I did wrong |
| And change how the future has come |
| Through appliance of science |
| I’ll take a hold of my enemies |
| Take their obscenities |
| Kiss them, and leave them like lovers who’ve gone |
| I’ll call my dad |
| I’ll tell him I miss him |
| And tell my reflection: 'it's not your fault' |
| And now the moment has come |
| I’m traveling back in time |
| They’re running down the hall |
| I’ve started the countdown |
| They want me to stop |
| But I don’t think so |
| I’m ready to go |
| Let’s get the job done |
| Put your shoes on and |
| Run away from here |
| I can’t get involved |
| This is all so weird |
| (Oh my God, it’s me, age nine) |
| Let’s get the job done |
| All the things I’ve lost |
| All the people I’ve hurt |
| All the times I lied |
| All the moments wasted |
| All I never did |
| All the dreams I had |
| All the things I would change |
| I can change them |
| Beyond the paradoxical |
| All the lights are dazzling |
| Pass the planes, and trains, and satellite navigation |
| Pass the time I spent today |
| Through the nearest wormhole |
| In a stunning ball of white |
| The light explodes into another moment |
