Time Will Only Tell

We're gonna learn to love And throw it all away We're gonna drink ourselves To an early grave Gonna let it slip right through our hands Gonna bury our heads in the sand Time will only tell Time will only tell Time will only tell Are we listening to ourselves? Is there an afterlife Or is there only this? Do we spend it all now? Do we save our chips? This situation is getting kinda mean Gonna have to deal with The big war machine Time will only tell Time will only tell Time will only tell Are we listening to ourselves? He said, "Father, won't you tell me who I'm supposed to be? 'Cause there's so many questions with the world at your feet Every generation's responsibilities to be listening to ourselves" She said, "Mother, won't you tell me how I'm supposed to feel? 'Cause Hollywood has told me it's only mostly real To stand up and be counted, it takes nerves of steel To start listening to ourselves" Time will only tell Time will only tell Time will only tell Are we listening to ourselves? Oh, are we listening to ourselves? Yeah, are we listening to ourselves? Ooh, are we listening to ourselves? Ooh, are we listening to ourselves? Are we listening to ourselves? Are we listening to ourselves?
