-
1:19 - 1:22♫ Well you could find me permanently entertaining ♫
-
1:22 - 1:25♫ Running round butt naked when it was raining ♫
-
1:25 - 1:28♫ And staining my kneecaps with blood and tree sap ♫
-
1:28 - 1:31♫ Man, I could stay in those days ♫
-
1:31 - 1:34♫ Making and creating anything of the sort ♫
-
1:34 - 1:37♫ But I didn’t follow the other kid
cookie cutting a tree fort ♫ -
1:37 - 1:40♫ But I made a teepee ♫
-
1:40 - 1:43♫ And my father helped me ♫
-
1:43 - 1:46♫ My, how time flies ♫
-
1:46 - 1:55♫ And I’m trying to tie down my time from flying ♫
-
1:55 - 2:00♫ away my my my many memories have gone by ♫
-
2:00 - 2:07♫ And I’m catching quite a supply of love in my life ♫
-
2:07 - 2:10♫ Like it was yesterday I was nearly half my size ♫
-
2:10 - 2:12♫ Pounding nails, making potions with Pa ♫
-
2:12 - 2:14♫ And Clyde would come with me outside ♫
-
2:14 - 2:16♫ While Pa sat in his chair ♫
-
2:16 - 2:19♫ And I wished to the stars
that he would stay there ♫ -
2:19 - 2:22♫ I always loved to be sick over at my grandmas ♫
-
2:22 - 2:25♫ Wandering out to the alleyway wearing only pajamas♫
-
2:25 - 2:28♫ And she, she told me don’t go touching the whiskey ♫
-
2:28 - 2:31♫ So I turned rocks into my friends ♫
-
2:31 - 2:34♫ I better leave it all, playing in water for hours ♫
-
2:34 - 2:37♫ Then rinsing off, and bearing it all
outside in the shower ♫ -
2:37 - 2:40♫ I’d be alone on a stone in the creek ♫
-
2:40 - 2:43♫ And I was told to be a man and
a hook's making me weak ♫ -
2:43 - 2:46♫ What a treat it was, that Damn Candy Store ♫
-
2:46 - 2:48♫ Gave me a sweet tooth and an excuse ♫
-
2:48 - 2:51♫ Couldn’t get away with that word before ♫
-
2:51 - 2:56♫ And the candy man just gave me more ♫
-
2:56 - 2:59♫ My how time flies ♫
-
2:59 - 3:04♫ And I’m trying to tie down my time ♫
-
3:04 - 3:07♫ From flying away ♫
-
3:07 - 3:12♫ My my my many memories have gone by ♫
-
3:12 - 3:21♫ And I’m catching quite a supply
of love in my life yeah ♫ -
3:21 - 3:23♫ My how time flies ♫
-
3:23 - 3:30♫ And I’m trying to tie down my time ♫
-
3:30 - 3:34♫ And my time is up ♫
