My Time Machine


If I could travel in time
when I was seventeen

I'd say boy never settle
grab a rifle go hunting you dream

Don't get too caught up
in being something you're not

Better work on your chops,
Give everything all that you've got

and don't worry about the break ups
Don't worry about the break ups
Don't worry about the break ups

Now you're washed out superhero
whose only cover's been blown..again

You bought into this stupid idea
that you could do it alone...don't pretend

You were acting like a clown
playing dirty tricks just trying to fit in

Now your cape is too tight,
You got a belly and a double chin

So stop wearing all that makeup
Stop wearing all that makeup
Stop wearing all that makeup

Get back in my time machine
Lock the door and hit the smoke screen
Needle's dropping like a broken van
It's never too late to start again

Get back in my time machine
Lock the door and hit the smoke screen
Needle's dropping like a broken van
(No use crying like a bitter old man)
(No use crying about your failed plans)
It's never too late to start again

And now I just want to disappear
I just wanna dissapear
Now I just want to disappear
Now I just want to disappear

Get back in my time machine
Lock the door and hit the smoke screen
Needle's dropping like a broken van
(No use crying like a bitter old man)
(No use crying about your failed plans)
It's never too late to start again

If I could visit myself
When I was seventeen

I'd say push a little harder
You're just one more failure short of a dream
