Michael Penn - Free Time Lyrics
I won't ever get used to thisA blank spottemptationsdo resist.The other shoe will dropjust an aftershockNice hat; you look like a refereeNice watch; but why are you timing me?Its spring has come unwoundI was not out of boundsThis is not outI drew that linewhen I was handed free time.Bells clangI guess it's a holidayDid that rhyme?Shit!I'm a poet now.So give me stuff for freeand if I do somehowinto the soft whitesof beautiful liesstare downstareI don't apologizeI've never been the kindto close an open mindso leave behind all that extra free time. Picked a lock and hopped some fences that won't do Burning these = a bad example finding out = a Roman candleIf I'm pale, it doesn't mean something's wrongIf I'm blue, I just held my breath too longSo if you wouldn't mindjust do the deal and I'll be real sublimewhen I get all your free time.
