The Monday Morning Memo

Time, why you punish me?
Like a wave bashing into the shore
You wash away my dreams.
Time, why you walk away?
Like a friend with somewhere to go
You left me crying.
 
Can you teach me ’bout tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow running free?
‘Cause tomorrow’s just another day
And I don’t believe in time.

Time I don’t understand
Children killing in the street
Dying for the color of red.
Time, they’re red and blue.
Wash them in the ocean, make them clean.
Maybe their mother won’t cry tonight.

Can you teach me about tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow running free?
But tomorrow’s just another day
And I don’t believe in
Time is wasting, time is walking,
You ain’t no friend of mine.
I don’t know where I’m goin’,
I think I’m out of my mind
Thinking about time.
 
And if I die tomorrow
Just lay me down in sleep.
Time is wasting, time is walking,
You ain’t no friend of mine.
I don’t know where I’m goin’
I think I’m out of my mind
Thinking about time
 
Time you left me standing there
Like a tree growing all alone
The wind just stripped me bare
Stripped me bare
Time the past has come and gone.
The future’s far away
And “now” only lasts for one second, one second
 
Can you teach me ’bout tomorrow
And all the pain and sorrow, running free?
‘Cause tomorrow’s just another day
And I don’t believe in time
You ain’t no friend of mine
I don’t know where I’m goin’
I think I’m out of my mind.
Walking, wasting
You ain’t no friend of mine
And I don’t know where I’m goin’
No don’t know
Time without courage
And time without fear
Is just wasted, wasted
Wasted time.
Time, why you punish me?

“A Rabbi, Priest and Imam were asked what 3 words they wanted people to say at their graveside.

The Priest said: ‘pure, selfless, loving.’

The Imam said: ‘passionate, dignified, wise.’

The Rabbi replied: ‘Look, he’s moving!'”
