PRINCE - Sign 'O' The Times lyrics

rate me

Oh yeah

In France a skinny man

Died of a big disease with a little name

By chance his girlfriend came across a needle

And 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, time

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church

And killed everyone inside

U turn on the telly and every other story

Is tellin' U somebody died

Sister killed her baby cuz she could afford 2 feed it

And we're sending people 2 the moon

In September my cousin tried reefer 4 the very first time

Now he's doing horse, it's June

Times, times

It's silly, no?

When a rocket ship explodes

And everybody still wants 2 fly

Some say a man ain't happy

Unless a man truly dies

Oh why

Time, time

Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly

Neighbors just shine it on

But if a night falls and a bomb falls

Will anybody see the dawn

Time, times

It's silly, no?

When a rocket blows

And everybody still wants 2 fly

Some say a man ain't happy, truly

Until a man truly dies

Oh why, oh why, Sign O the Times

Time, time

Sign O the Times mess with your mind

Hurry before it's 2 late

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

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

Time, time
