Badless The A Matter Of Time Lyrics

A Matter Of Time Lyrics

Town clock stopped tickin', but it ain't broken

 Got a problem that no one can define

 While that river keeps on a-flowin'

 Hang on children, it's a matter of time

 

 Angry child, impatience growin'

 Waits with her father in that unemployment line

 While that river goes on a-flowin'

 Hang on darlin', it's a matter of time

 

 Scarecrow watchin' years of growin'

 With floods of asphalt creepin' closer each time

 While that river goes on a-flowin'

 Hang on brother, it's a matter of time

 

 Sparrow, she's sleepin' with now way of knowin'

 What's goin' on inside those telephone lines

 Below, that river keeps on a-flowin'

 Hang on sister it's a matter of time

 

 Some say god created man, his likeness showin'

 I do believe they've got it backwards this time

 Somehow that river goes on a-flowin'

 Hang on children, it's a matter of time

 

 Tainted river flows to the ocean

 That coughs up on the shore its poisonous brine

 Why don't that river just stop a-flowin'

 Hang on children, it's a matter of time
