Lyrics
History
chorus:
I gotta get ahead
See what?s afoot
Before I get dead
and I gotta stay put
I wanna get the lowdown
before I go down
Gotta solve this mystery
before I?m history
Well, time, you?re a big, mean, hungry thing
Eatin? everything up like a meal
But I?m a nice guy, I got a suit and tie?
Can?t you cut me a deal?
?No!?
(chorus)
?Cause like a drop on a leaf, life gonna teeter
I wanna live right,
don?t wanna come back a skeeter
Now I done burned out precious time
on dally, dawdle, and diddle
But I won?t find no peace in my mind
?til I can crack this riddle
