Lyrics

GIANT SCISSORS OF TIME

Prowling through the shopping malls,
Picking out some paper dolls,
Until someone hauls out
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

Playing on the second team,
Maybe even first string;
You’ll still feel the cutting of
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

You might never even slip,
Running at a fast clip;
Yet what’s gonna end your trip?
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

You might live a life of hate,
Think you’ll never meet your fate;
But you won’t have long to wait for
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

Your work has been inspected,
And it’s just been rejected;
And you’re about to be dissected by
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

You’ve always been so clever,
In all that you’ve endeavored,
Now, watch your world get severed by
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

Samson broke in sheer terror,
When Delilah stroked his hair,
But he was cut down then and there by
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.

Like a butterfly floating free,
Or a jabbing, stinging bee,
You’ll still fall in history to
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.
The giant scissors of time.
