CORRECT LYRICS

Lyrics : Flavor Flav

I got ideals and dreams that don't work in practice
I got a time machine and it don't go backwards
A list of ill fated quick licks under 'frigerator magnets
Above a school trip permission slip
That's a afrofuturism you consent to watch after
Big hand captured, little man chasin', it do tick faster
The hour coming [?] finders fee, start downhill running
Lickety split
Skin the spliff like a onion, clock struck mid stroke
We finished in a pumpkin
Don't come round with that "go slow"
We sick of waiting, it's go mode
Battle of Algiers with the GoPro
fear, all roads lead to Rome
Shook the hourglass like a snowglobe
Auntie had the JC Penny Timex flooded with rhinestones
Tapped the face like swiss movement
It's easy to loose track and get trapped in the future

They said time is on my side
They said time is on my side
They said time is on my side
They said time is on my side

Golden hour, portal to Orangeburg, '68
Live ammunition, state troopers stormed the gates
Laughing, lucky I made it back alive with just the shakes
Still feel the rounds flying past my face
Flashes, b*st*rds
In the end, nine acquitted assassins, post traumatic
Had to go back to lighten the load of the allostatic
In my present flesh body
The center won't hold, miss watching how a flat circle fold
They slept proudly
One last shot, time is on your side 'til it's not
Flavor Flav clock spins centrifugal
Rhythm in intervals, possibilities invisible but endless
Can you find the level of difficulty in this?
Travelling fifty years back, I only moved the pen six inches
Woke on the benches
Pale faces beyond the fire, rabid with the sickness
Buckshot rang out, flinching, panic, confusion
Come off feet, ducking, skin of teeth, winded
Data thief cosplay dead drop at the end of the world
More brilliant than a sunbeam, drum skin stretched

Time is on my side
Time is on my side
Time is on my side
