Crooked Piece of Time |
| Things got rough |
| Things got tough |
| Things got harder than hard |
| We were just trying to make a livin' in our backyard |
| We were born too late, died to soon |
| Anxiety’s a terrible crime |
| If you don’t come now, don’t come at all |
| 'Cause it’s a crooked piece of time |
| It’s a crooked piece of time that we live in |
| All in all and all in all it was a crooked piece of time |
| Yesterday morning an ill wind came |
| Blew your picture right out of the picture frame |
| Even blew the candle out from underneath the flame |
| Yesterday morning an ill wind came |
| It’s a crooked piece of time that we live in |
| All in all and all in all it was a crooked piece of time |
| Things got rough |
| Things got tough |
| Things got harder than hard |
| We were just trying to make a livin' in our backyard |
| We were born too late, died to soon |
| Anxiety’s a terrible crime |
| If you don’t come now, don’t come at all |
| 'Cause it’s a crooked piece of time |
| It’s a crooked piece of time that we live in |
| All in all and all in all it was a crooked piece of time |
| It’s a crooked piece of time that we live in |
| All in all and all in all it was a crooked piece of time |
| It’s a crooked piece of time |
| It’s a crooked piece of time |
