Time Isn’t on My Side

Time isn't on my side
Any more than you
And that's the only thing here
That's halfway true

I can tell you what's wrong
With this picture
Taken from the angle where
I've centered myself

Waiting for the dusty shelf
To get wiped down
Practicing my lines
In a whispered shout

And now a bell will chime
To celebrate an expiration past its prime
Stretching out the time will be fine
Someone break it down, we'll be fine

Time isn't on my side
Any more than you
And that's the only thing here
That's halfway true

And now we'll give it a rest
Knowing that it's you who can say it best
Show me what you feel about your mess
Say fortunately I am impressed
