You think you are smart to break my heart
You tear things apart when we have to race against you
"Earth to the one named Time. On behalf of Plaintiff Bishop, his lawyers, the audience, and I, the judge, we demand you to show yourself and stand trial immediately! Plaintiff, you may proceed."
Dear Time, tyrant floating like maritime
Flowing in a straight line, thinking you're prime
Having in mind that your power's sublime
Stopping on everyone and every dime
Now how many times you got me victimized?
I'm a grown-up now and I aim to be right
Therefore I try to be nice, making faces light
I go for wise, and I get despised
Now I want justice! I'm with the justice!
Because I'm such a perfectionist
Slow and steady I take things
Yeah, I work like the Tortoise
While you seep in boisterous
The dullness of your indulgence
Makes my life so reckless
And makes my workplace a mess
Where everyone's pressed
Getting things in press
While other things get wrecked
When we all want flawless
Nonetheless, someone's still unimpressed
Why? 'Cause you go and fly
And I, having fun, I deny
How dare you define your vision as blind?
Even Einstein was inclined to realize
You can sight whenever someone cries
Or when someone dies
So come on now, show us your alibis
You think you are smart to break my heart
You tear things apart when we have to race against you
You think you are smart to break my heart
You tear things apart when we have to race against you
"Okay. Okay! Okay! Enough! Please continue."
I'm a grateful man for opportunity
Especially for this one you've given me
With this woman who was fresh from June
Sounding like a tune sung from the top of a dune
Flying out to the moon (AND BACK!)
Yeah, guess how much I loved her (YOU'RE WACK!)
Uh, you're talking to me now, right?
(Man, get out that disguise!)
But you see that, Time? When my stakes are high
They mistake me and my wit for spitting stacks of lies
I'm sick of this plight taking all my might
Now I want the light to break the troubled night
When the fireflies come dropping by
It's the same lullaby and nursery rhyme
Two little blue birds singing all day
No time for names, they already flew away
And if they'll ever come back, do you think I could tell that?
I tell without music how life could "B-flat"
She started to scat, so I got in her act
Then she wanted contact, what a friendly combat
Has someone had it bad (or was he a little brat?)
Or is the pot calling the kettle black?
Back to the fact; we drifted right off the bat
From the love we never had
Let's tell 'em
You think you are smart to break my heart
You drift us apart when we need the hold of a friend
You think you are smart to break my heart
You drift us apart when we need the hold of a friend
You see, we need you, but we need a way to manage you
"Alright, order. Order! ORDER!!! Cross-examination."
What's your deal? I thought you were supposed to heal
What's your deal? I thought you were supposed to heal
What's your deal? I thought you were supposed to heal
What's your deal? I thought you were supposed to heal
"Will the plaintiff return to his stand?"
