Time Bomb Songtext
von Old 97’s

I got a timebomb, in my mind Mom.
I hear it ticking but I don′t know why.
I call the police, but they don't like me.
I hear ′em whispering when I walk by.

I got a landmine in my bloodline.
I'm not immune to getting blown apart.
She's like a claymore, that′s what she′s there for.
She's waiting ′round here to get blown apart.


Having her on my brain's like getting hit by a train,
She′s gonna kill me. Oh Celeste, oh Celeste.

I got a timebomb, in my mind Mom,
It's gonna go off, but I don′t know when.
I need a doctor to extract her.
I got a feeling she'd get right back in again

I got a timebomb, in my mind Mom,
I got it badly for a stick-legged girl
She's gonna kill me, and I don′t mean softly.
I got it badly for a stick-legged girl


Having her on my brain′s like getting hit by a train,
She's gonna kill me. Oh Celeste, oh Celeste, oh Celeste.
