Present Time

Headed down to the country store With a head full of bumble bees Got a date with the magistrate In the garden of the Tuileries I got lost in the candy mart Had to call for a helping hand There's a map leading to my heart Or there's room for another friend But it's either, not both Ain't no more room on this boat And it's one way to my soul It's a long walk back from Buffalo And it's hot highs and tricky lows But there ain't no time like the present time Got stuck in the veggie aisle Had a hiccup on my junior mint Had to put back my celery And hang on to my government Don't believe everything that you read Said the cover of a magazine Had to pause while I did the math Had to take a shot of listerine You just stop your vote Ain't no more room on this boat And it's one way to my soul It's a long walk back from Buffalo And it's hot highs and tricky lows But there ain't no time like the present time Movin on with my eager eye Make a motion for a summary Take a look at my brother's way Gonna live my life accordingly I got a pillow for my good side And a little bit of Ambien Go to sleep on the cozy ride Set the sound track to ambient You just play me Or don't I got packed to carry this load And it's one way to my soul It's a long walk back from Buffalo And it's hot highs and tricky lows But there ain't no time like the present time Ain't no time like the present time Ain't no time like the present time Ain't no time like the present Ain't no time like the present time Ain't no time like the present time Ain't no time like the present Ain't no time Here we go Ain't no time like the present
