Lyrics
Here in the shadows where we, stand watching lady, watching man Reading the pictures as they roll - We see the planet lose control Hothead! Evolution, nonstop evolution Hothead! Hothead! Evolution, nonstop evolution (hothead..) Time, time will change the picture (all the time) About time!, (all the time) Time will change the picture How to change the points of view 'bout what is fake and what is true Blow by blow you're telling me You'll change the course of history (chorus) Bop bop bop bop, bop-bop-bop Bop bop bop bop, bop-bop-bop Bop bop bop bop, bop-bop-bop Bop bop dop bop Time!, Time! I turn you on you turn me off Right now I'm suffering from this culture shock You spread confusion wherever you can With shaking heads and shaking hands Use propoganda to manipulate When they make a bust you protect the state Then the body break and the body tumble - So you build it up, then you watch it crumble. Time will change the picture (evoltion, nonstop evolution) About time, time will change the picture (evoltion, nonstop evolution) About time, time will change the picture (evoltion, NONSTOP!)
