Steven Wilson - Sign O' The Times Lyrics
In France a skinny manDied of a big disease with a little nameBy chance his girlfriend came across a needleAnd soon she did the sameAt home there are seventeen-year-old boysAnd their idea of funIs being in a gang called the disciplesHigh on crack, totin' a machine gunTime, timeHurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a churchAnd killed everyone insideYou turn on the telly and every other storyIs tellin u somebody diedSister killed her baby cuz she couldn't afford to feed itAnd were sending people to the moonIn September my cousin tried reefer for the very first timeNow he's doing Horse, it's JuneTimes, timesIt's silly, no?When a rocket ship explodesAnd everybody still wants to flySome say a man ain't happy trulyUntil he truly diesOh whyTime, timeBaby make a speech, star wars flyNeighbors just shine it onBut if a night falls and a bomb fallsWill anybody see the dawnTime, timesIt's silly, no?When a rocket blowsAnd everybody still wants to flySome say a man ain't happy, trulyUntil a man truly diesOh why, oh why, sign 'o' the timesTime, timeSign 'o' the times mess with your mindHurry before it's too lateLet's fall in love, get married, have a babyWell call him Nate... if it's a boyTime, timeTime, time
