Time the Avenger

Nobody's perfect, not even a perfect stranger

But, oh, what a gal, she was such a perfect stranger

And you're the best in your field

In your office with your girls and desk and leather chair

I thought that time was on your side

But now it's time the avenger

Nobody's permanent, everything's on loan here

Even your wife and kids could be gone next year

And with what you have left

You'll be forever under pressure to support her

And a lover who looks strangely

Like time the avenger

Time, time, hear the bells chime

Over the harbor and the city

Time for one more vodka and lime

To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick

Nobody's perfect, not even a perfect gent

When your property took the A train

I wonder where your manners went

You were standin' at the station

In your briefcase was your aftershave and underwear

Can you hear the whistle blow?

Sounds like time the avenger

Time, time, hear the bells chime

Over the harbor and the city

Time to kill another bottle of wine

To help paralyze that tiny little tick, tick, tick, tick
