"It's About Time"
(Lyrics and Music - D. Echnoz)
It’s About Time
Verse:
I see my reflection in my dirty store window
I see a man, with power over time
I’ve been to Appomattox, I’ve seen Nagasaki
My clients want to see the worst of humanity
I know before they ask to when they want to go
See a few years ahead maybe see if you’ll be dead
But there’s a price to pay if you want to play
If you travel to the past, watch out I’ll own your ass
Chorus:
It’s about time
Time to find a different day
It’s about time
Time to find a another way
It’s about time
Time to see from where you came
It’s about time
Time to look for future fame
Verse:
Some, it seems have time to waste some run around in haste
They hang around killing time punch a clock each day at nine
Backwards, forwards, retrograde inversions
Backwards and forwards endless diversions
They don’t know what they’re buying or what they'll find
I tell them of the danger of time redefined
Raise a glass with me you’re going to the past
But first…..You gotta pay me in advance
Chorus:
It’s about time
Time to find a different day
It’s about time
Time to find a another way
It’s about time
Time to see from where you came
It’s about time
Time to look for future fame
Bridge:
Everyday is Monday for me or Tuesday if I choose
Wednesdays and Thursdays bore me on Fridays I cut loose
I never take a weekend to recover from my ways
I’ll rewind or go ahead to another time another place
Instrumental:
Chorus (two times)
It’s about time
