Gino Vannelli - THE TIME OF DAY lyrics

rate me

All the ghosts in the schoolyard

Young rebels with no dreams

Dying of old age

At seventeen

Some blame their mothers

For this unforgiving world

Others point the finger

At the flag the wind unfurls

But I say

You are the lock you are the key

You are the master of your destiny

The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't you give him the room or and inch to play

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't give the devil the time of day

There's a face in the mirror

You don't recognize

So you shatter the lights

'cause they sting your bloodshot eyes

You walk on with a stranger

Who rolls your soul up in his wad

You place your trust in him

Like you once placed it in god

Well I say

You are the lock you are the key

You are the master of your destiny

The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't you give him the room or and inch to play

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't give the devil the time of day

Caught between the cyclone fence and a red brick wall

Yeah, you melt like chocolate in the sun

Then you see your angel walking with his high-tops on

And he hands you heaven hotter than a loaded gun

(the time of day)

Don't you give him

(the time of day)

Don't you give him

(the time of day)

You are the lock you are the key

You are the master of your destiny

The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't you give him the room or and inch to play

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't give the devil the time of day

All the ghosts in the schoolyard

Young rebels with no dreams

Dying of old age

At seventeen

Well I say

You are the lock you are the key

You are the master of your destiny

The devil's the dude who sells poison for pay

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't you give him the room or and inch to play

Don't give the devil the time of day

Don't give the devil the time of day
