What A Time Lyrics
B. R. Hornsby/John HornsbyIt came on fast when I heard the blastAnd the main generator gave a giant gaspIt was round about midnight, about half pastAnd the city went black as coal so fastOh, what a timeEverybody was fazing, hazingOh, what a timeIt was time to be amazingTime to lose all reason or rhymeWhat a timeIt was bad to worse, as the landlord cursedAnd the water tank in the backyard burstWe were slipping and sliding and killing thirstAnd we couldn't see a soul doing it in the dirtOh, what a timeEverybody was praising, raisingOh, what a timeIt was time to be amazingTime to lose all reason or rhymeWhat a timeA thousand people singing in the darkCouldn't see a thingA thousand people singing in the darkOh, what a timeEverybody was razing, grazingOh, what a timeIt was time to be amazingTime to lose all reason or rhymeWhat a time
Bruce Hornsby What A Time
