I'm sittin' on a time-bomb. The world is like a time-bomb. And it's about to explode.... There once was a young boy...a modestly done boy. Who seemed pretty normal on sight. Wantin' for nothin'...but wantin' for somethin'. But mama made everything right. Inside her protection he learned of rejection. By a world that was not quite his own. He took his reward in a double-edged sword. Now the poor boy is always alone. He built himself a time-bomb. A ticking talking time-bomb. It's about to explode under me. His world is like a time-bomb. A walking talking time-bomb. It's about to explode under me. Now off on a new day...alone in her own way. A young girl waits by the phone. Longin' for daddy...she's missin' him badly. She knows that he's not comin' home. So down by the levee...her heart weighin' heavy. She knows that she's got to break free. She falls when she sees him...she knows how to please him. They can't see the woods for the trees. She built herself a time-bomb. A walking talking time-bomb. It's about to explode under me. She's sittin' on a time-bomb. A ticking talking time-bomb. It's about to explode under me. You gotta have faith late into the night. If there's another day...try to make it right. Find another way...shine another light. So now they're both older...their world growin' colder. And nothin' appears as it seemed. They look to their future...and the wounds that they nurture. And try to hold on to their dreams. This terrible twosome have really been through some. Scenes that they both know by heart. Mem'ries that jail them...support that has failed them. And they laugh but it tears them apart. We're sittin' on a time-bomb. A ticking talking time-bomb. It's about to explode under me. This world is like a time-bomb. A walking talking time-bomb. It's about to explode under me. The world is like a time-bomb. A ticking talking time-bomb. We're sittin' on a time-bomb and it's about to explode. I see the enemy...and he looks like me. I see the enemy...and he looks like me. Looks a lot like you--looks a lot like me. Looks a lot like you--looks a lot like me.
