Time The Avenger Lyrics by Pretenders

Time The Avenger Lyrics

    Nobody's perfect
    Not even a perfect stranger
    But oh what a gal
    She was such a perfect stranger
    And you're the best in your field
    In your office with your girls
    And desk and leather chair
    Thought that time was on your side
    But now it's time the avenger


    Nobody's permanent
    Everything's on loan here
    Even your wife and kids
    Could be gone next year
    And with what you have left
    You'll be forever under pressure
    To support her
    And a lover who looks strangely
    Like time the avenger


    Time, time, hear the bells chime
    Over the harbor and the city
    Time, one more vodka and lime
    To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick


    Nobody's perfect
    Not even a perfect gent
    When your property took the a train
    I wonder where your manners went
    You were standing at the station
    In your briefcase
    Was your aftershave and underwear
    Can you hear the whistle blow?
    Sounds like time the avenger


    Time, time, hear the bells chime
    Over the harbor and the city
    Time to kill another bottle of wine
    To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick
