Time Bomb Lyrics


Old 97's Time Bomb

I got a time bomb, 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 land mine 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
Oh, Celeste, oh, Celeste

I got a time bomb, 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 time bomb, 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, getting hit by a train
She's gonna kill me, oh, Celeste, oh, Celeste
Oh, Celeste, oh, Celeste

Oh, Celeste
