One day your born, one day you'll die Gotta look like an angel in your mother's eye Gotta grow like a sparrow for someday you'll fly Aint got a thing but time
And then your grown, gonna get your kicks Do you run toward the devil and his clever tricks Do you make the kind of worries you can never fix To keep for all this time
Someday you gotta do like your daddy's right Gotta go to work and pay your fines Well you got some dreams but you got some time And I got things I call mine
There's always something else to do The wants are many but the times are few A little bit older but you'll start things soon I'm sure there is still time
Got a little man inside my head A selfish beggar with a nagging beg A three eyed devil with a gift to tempt Goddamn you devil mine
A young man passes by an old man's stoop The old man's jealous of the young man's youth Somewhere I was once a young man too Where did go all my time?
Full of grace The eyes of babes Who cast their gaze in awe Now in grey For God I wait My pace remains a crawl
I clung to the moment but the moment passed It seems I couldn't make the good ones last I ran from the devil but the devil's fast Goddamn you devil die
And then death catches up to you Well your road was steady and the stops were few But the regrets were many and you found no truth Goddamn you devil time Goddamn you devil mine Goddamn you devil die
