Disguised as a bellhop in an elevator at the Holiday Inn |
|
He loves to give the door a stop and graciously invite you in |
|
Glances at his pocketwatch and he'll take any gal down town |
|
Looks at you with a wink of an eye and he asks, going down |
|
Don't mess with the time man don't mess with his plan |
|
Cause he keeps a tight rein on both time and space |
|
Don't mess with the time man cause if you mess with his plan |
|
You'll wake and find yourself another place |
|
Shielding my eyes so I can't see |
|
Time man don't you mess with me |
|
Reminding me about my past mistakes |
|
And I'm forgiven so get out of my face |
|
The elevator increases its speed |
|
Dust rains through your mind |
|
Time man points to pictures on the walls of all the places in your past time |
|
Feeling so guilty of your past of things you said and done |
|
You see the time man smile and say |
|
You have no where to run |
|
Don't mess with the time man don't you mess with his plan |
|
Cause he keeps a tight rein on both time and space |
|
Don't mess with the time man cause if you mess with his plan |
|
You'll wake and find yourself another place |
|
Shielding my eyes so I can't see |
|
Time man don't you mess with me |
|
Reminding me about my past mistakes |
|
And I'm forgiven so get out of my face |
|
Shielding my eyes so I can't see |
|
Time man don't you mess with me |
|
Reminding me about my past mistakes |
|
But I'm forgiven so get out of my face |
|
But I'm forgiven so get out of my face |
|
(one more time) |
|
I'm forgiven so get out of my face |
