“Time Machine” is the third track from Willow’s third album WILLOW. The song is about being born in the wrong generation – something Willow always talks about feeling like – and wanting to go back in time.
[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Baby, if I had a time machine
I'd go back to 1983
Maybe I would chill with Basquiat
I'd be out there playing make-believe
I'd be in the streets of NYC
Sippin' lemonade likely
21st Century me, 20th Century dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
And tell me does it feel like that?
Does it really feel like that?
'Cause baby, if it's real like that...
[Chorus]
Then please don't wait on me, on me
Please don't wait on me, on me
Please don't wait on me, on me
(Take 'em back to 1983
Shining down, look like a Christmas tree
I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me
Time machine, time machine)
Please don't wait on me, on me
(Take 'em back to 1983
Shining down, look like a Christmas tree
I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me
Time machine, time machine)
[Verse 2]
Baby if I had a time machine
I'd go back to 1993
Maybe I would play with Kurt Cobain
Maybe I would get on MTV
Maybe I would cruise all day
Ride a longboard, foosball fates
I don't care what anyone says
Everyone is disconnected these days
'Cause everyone is looking at their phone
Tryna feel like they are less alone (So wrong)
And I'm here to tell them that they're wrong (So wrong)
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause baby, if it feels like that
Tell me if it feels like that
Tell me if it's real like that
[Chorus]
Then please don't wait on me, on me
Please don't wait on me, on me
Please don't wait on me, on me
(Take 'em back to 1983
Shining down, look like a Christmas tree
I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me
Time machine, time machine)
Please don't wait on me, on me
(Take 'em back to 1983
Shining down, look like a Christmas tree
I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me
Time machine, time machine)
