Time Man

Disguised as a bellhop in an elevator at the Holiday Inn

He loves to give the door a stop

And graciously invite you in

Glances at his pocketwatch and he'll take any gal down town

Looks at you with a wink of an eye and

He asks going down

Don't mess with the time man

Don't mess with his plan

'Cause he keeps a tight rein on both time and space

Don't mess with the time man

'Cause if you mess with his plan

You'll wake and find yourself another place

Shielding my eyes so I can't see

Time man don't you mess with me

Reminding me about my past mistakes

And I'm forgiven so get out of my face

The elevator increases it's speed

Dust rains through your mind

Time man points to pictures on the walls

Of all the places in your past time

Feeling so guilty of your past of things you said and done

You see the time man smile and say

You have no where to run

Don't mess with the time man

Don't you mess with his plan

'Cause he keeps a tight rein on both time and space

Don't mess with the time man

'Cause if you mess with his plan

You'll wake and find yourself another place

Shielding my eyes so I can't see

Time man don't you mess with me

Reminding me about my past mistakes

And I'm forgiven so get out of my face

Shielding my eyes so I can't see

Time man don't you mess with me

Reminding me about my past mistakes

But I'm forgiven so get out of my face

Shielding my eyes so I can't see

Time man don't you mess with me

Reminding me about my past mistakes

And I'm forgiven so get out of my face

But I'm forgiven so get out of my face

One more time

I'm forgiven so get out of my face
