Lyrics:

Taken by surprise, by the size of my brain

Knowing all the time all the lies, all the games,

Thinking up a storm; when it storms, it's going to rain

Taking what's mine all the time, all the time

Take some for yourself

It's all good for something

And when there's no more to give,

The window will shine in the light

On what's left for me

Know in your mind that

you've got to remember your name

Staggering around, can't find a place to sit down;

Nothing suits my ass

Toast to some champagne of pain

I know you can bring us all a bottle

Remember the time when time was a friend,

And you could make him lend you a hand

Now there's a place where taking takes place,

And time just gets in your way.

That's it!
