Time Will Crawl |
| I’ve never sailed on a sea |
| I would not challenge a giant |
| I could not take on the church |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| I know a government man |
| He was as blind as the moon, and he— |
| He saw the sun in the night |
| He took a top-gun pilot and he— |
| He made him fly through a hole |
| 'Til he grew real old, and he— |
| And he never came down |
| He just flew till he burst |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til our mouths run dry |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til our feet grow small |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til our tails fall off |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| I saw a black, black stream |
| Full of white eyed fish |
| And a drowning man |
| With no eyes at all |
| I felt a warm, warm breeze |
| That melted metal and steel |
| I got a bad migraine |
| That lasted three long years |
| And the pills that I took |
| Made my fingers disappear |
| Time will crawl |
| Time will crawl |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| (Go!) |
| Time will crawl |
| Time will crawl |
| You were a talented child |
| You came to live in our town |
| We never bothered to scream |
| When your mask went off |
| We only smelt the gas |
| As we lay down to sleep |
| Time will crawl |
| And our heads bowed down |
| Time will crawl |
| And our eyes fall out |
| Time will crawl |
| And the streets run red |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| And our mouths run dry |
| Time will crawl |
| And our feet grow small |
| Time will crawl |
| And our tails fall off |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| And our heads bowed down |
| Time will crawl |
| And our eyes fall out |
| Time will crawl |
| And the streets run red |
| Time will crawl |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| Time will crawl |
| For the crazy child |
| Time will crawl |
| We’ll give every life |
| 'Til the twenty-first century lose |
| For the crackpot notion |
