Time Rolls On

Anybody seen my old friend Bill?

The long-haired hippie who we all knew as Jill

Left us on one Friday night, got lost and drunk and into a fight

Heard he followed the dead 'round for a year

Anybody seen my old friend Jay?

The sweet lounge lizard who danced like Sugar Ray

Left this bar one Friday night, got lost and stoned and into a fight

Heard he followed Fugazi for a year

While we say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

But not for me, no not for me

Yeah we say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

But not for me, no not for me

Aw, brother T

And all the hipsters, and all the losers, and all the freaks

Shuffle 'round like shadows on Brooklyn streets

Dreamin' of their glory days

Where peace and love was just a hit away

Funny how the buzz always seems to fade

While we say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

But not for me, no not for me

Yeah we say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

But not for me, no not for me

Aw, brother T

Well it's a screwed-up situation

No matter what the priest might say

It's just a loser generation

Who slowly die while they say

While they say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

But not for me, no not for me

Yeah we say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

But not for me

Yeah we say

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

Ain't it cool how time rolls on?

Man, it's cool how time rolls on

But not for me, no not for me

Aw, brother T
