Mr. Time

[Verse 1]
Stealing a moment from Mr. Time
He rocks in his chair like a shiny dime
But it's all for show, all for show
Wearing your name and a number or two
When the minute's up, so are you
But everybody knows, everybody knows

[Verse 2]
Watching the hour from the light in his eyes
He waits for your soul to come in from sky
But it's lost below, lost below
Turning the wheel of your destiny round
When the motion stops - no more sound
Does anybody care, anybody care?

[Chorus]
Where's the man, where's the child
Wrapped together side by side?
Who can tell you what to do
When Mr. Time has come for you?
See the truth, hear the lies
Can there be no compromise?
And who can tell you what they knew
When Mr. Time has come for you?

[Verse 3]
Is it a feeling or deja vu
When he points his finger calling you
Is it illusion? Just an illusion
Picking up seconds that fall to his feet
He blows them away as rocks on his seat
Cool as his smile, his smile

[Chorus]
When Mr. Time has come for you
