Time Has Come

See What You're Made Of

Time Has Come

teeth like a zipper

heart like a stone

finger on the trigger

cut down to the bone

staring through dead eyes

with one life to live

taking a walk on the wild side

smoking a used cigarette

a little change in my pocket

already burning a hole

an old photo in my locket

that someone else stole

nothing lasts forever

flying quicker than time

gotta learn to be clever

to waste it is a crime

gotta bully the bully

to earn your respect

sunglasses and a hoodie

assertive and direct

learn what you've got in ya

and the error of your ways

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah

well, you know what they say
