This is the story of my time machine invention
It's not perfect, 'cause I'm not that bright
We walk our days with the best of intentions
But when I screw things up, I want to go back and make them right
Yeah, I'm a believer in mind over matter
And I made my mind up to travel in time
Restart the days, and I'll do it so much better
I waste so much time a-worryin', I forgot to live my life
I'm not going anywhere 'til I'm back to where it was, we were before
I don't need anything, except always needing just a little more
I run in circles so I can kick me in the pants
There's a reason God is dog backwards, we must chase the tail
The truth is, my invention refuses to go backwards
A tiny glitch I'm sure to figure out
But I can ride all the moments slowly, time traveling forwards
The next destination is always right now
I'm not going anywhere 'til I'm back to where it was, we were before
I don't need anything, except always needing just a little more
I run in circles so I can kick me in the pants
There's a reason God is dog backwards, we must chase the tail
I've finally solved the puzzle of my time machine invention
You see, in the future this present is the past
So if you give this moment your fullest attention
We'll just keep going forwards with no need for going back
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
I'm not going anywhere 'til I'm back to where it was, we were before
I don't need anything, except always needing just a little more
I run in circles so I can kick me in the pants
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
