lyrics

time has no master, I keep going faster on my way down to the sea
the trees keep growing taller, the girls don't come until I holler and I ask ya what's wrong with me
buried my money down a hole, worked hard to save my soul then the truth came along to set me free
I've been working real hard to find my own wild card but it's locked up and there's no key
there's a place you can go when you want to take life slow, I'll show ya come along with me
you can really change your skin when you let this love in go ahead and fall down on your knees

Chorus
what's wrong with me, what's wrong with me, I can't see

you don't have to be afraid, some day you will get paid any how the best things in life are free
I found a tree full of fruit. I shook it down to it's root. that day we had pie with our tea
I put my knuckles through the wall, my crown sat crooked like king Saul. I emptied out my bucket of pee
I got problems you can't fix, I pick up a load of sticks. I wear my jeans out at the knee

chorus

It is time to go home there is no beer under the foam, I'll show you who you are for a small fee
I come in just like the Pope, my clothes smelling of soap, my best friend's hung over like a willow tree.
I crack underneath the strain, I can't live with this much pain it's all a matter of degree
I've come to the end, there's no ink left in the pen
I look to the things that I can't see

chorus
