Sign O' The Times
In France a skinny man
Died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle
And soon she did the same
At home there ar seventeen-year-old boys
And their idea of fun
Is being in a gang, called the disciples
High on crack, totin' a machine gun
Time, time
Hurricane annie ripped the ceiling of a church
And killed everyone inside
U turn on the telly and every other story
Is tellin' u somebody died
Sister killed her baby cuz she coukdn't afford to feed it
And we're sending people to the moon
In september my cousin tried refer for the very first time
Now he's doing horses, it's june
Time, time
It's silly, no?
When a rockket ship explodes
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy
Unless a man truly dies
Oh, why?
Time, time, time
Baby make a speech, star wars fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn?
Time, times
It's silly, no?
When a rockket blows
And everybody still wants to fly
Some say a man ain't happy
Unless a man truly dies
Oh why, oh why, sign o' the times
Time, time
Sign o' the times, mess with your mind
Hurry before it's too late
Let's fall in Love, get married, have a baby
We'll call him nate ... if it's a boy
Time, time
