CHAKA KHAN - Sign 'o' The Times lyrics

rate me

Oh yeah

In France, skinny man

Died of a big disease with a little name

By chance his girlfriend came across a needle

Soon she did the same

At home there are seventeen year old boys

And their idea of fun

Is being in a gang called The Disciples

High on crack, totin' a machine gun

Time

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church

And killed everyone inside

You turn on the telly and every other story

Tellin' you somebody died

Sister killed her baby 'cause she could afford to feed it

They were sending rockets to the moon

September my cousin tried reefer for the very first time

Now he's doing horse, it's June

Time, time, yeah

It's silly no, when a rocket ship explodes

Everybody still want to fly

Some say a man ain't happy

Unless a man truly dies, oh why?

Time, time, time

Baby make a speech, star wars fly

Neighbors just shine it on

But if the night falls and a bomb falls

Then everybody sees dawn

Time, time

It's silly now, when a rocket ship explodes

Everybody still wants to fly

Some say a man ain't happy, truly, yeah

Until he dies, oh why?

Time, time, time, time

Sign o' the times mess with your mind

Hurry before it's too late

Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby

We'll call him Nate, if it's a boy

Time, time

Everybody, yeah

Sign o' the times

Time, sign o' the times

Don't you know we can change the world?

Don't you know every boy and every girl

Deserves to live life, deserves a peace of mind?

Sign o' the times

Don't you know we can change the world?

Don't you know every boy and every girl

Deserves to live life, deserves a peace of mind?

Sign o' the times

Don't you know we can change the world?

Don't you know every boy and every girl

Deserves to live life, deserves a peace of mind?

Sign o' the times
