Nobody's perfect
|
Not even a perfect stranger
|
But oh what a gal
|
She was such a perfect stranger
|
And you're the best in your field
|
In your office with your girls
|
And desk and leather chair
|
Thought that time was on your side
|
But now it's time the avenger
|
|
Nobody's permanent
|
Everything's on loan here
|
Even your wife and kids
|
Could be gone next year
|
And with what you have left
|
You'll be forever under pressure
|
To support her
|
And a lover who looks strangely
|
Like time the avenger
|
|
Time, time, hear the bells chime
|
Over the harbor and the city
|
Time, one more vodka and lime
|
To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick
|
|
Nobody's perfect
|
Not even a perfect gent
|
When your property took the a train
|
I wonder where your manners went
|
You were standing at the station
|
In your briefcase
|
Was your aftershave and underwear
|
Can you hear the whistle blow?
|
Sounds like time the avenger
|
|
Time, time, hear the bells chime
|
Over the harbor and the city
|
Time to kill another bottle of wine
|
To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick
|
|
