verse 1 You can tell the past, boy, I can tell the future Give me a lobotomy and I can be your tutor Open up the blast doors, then we can be neutered I can smell your fingerprints all over my computer So give me all the black-brown sticky sugar water Swing you by your neck, mama, this can be your future Something very strange about your picture in the mirror When you move, it doesn't move - now how could that be weirder?

I hear the death rattle of a time wasted Time wasted, time wasted You know that I believe in it (Time wasted) You know that I believe in it But I'm wasted Pre Chorus You say you’re gonna change, yeah? But you don’t have any time, yeah? You say you’re gonna change, yeah? But you don’t have any time, yeah?
