The Hives - Introduce the metric system in time lyrics
rate meBeen trying for all my life but I can't add up your subtraction
Work, eat, play then go to sleep that won't get me no satisfaction
Gotta find a way out, yeah a way out of this mess
So sick of trying to make my time last and ending up with less
I know your way of doing things and it has lost it's attraction
Why settle for twenty-four when I can have a hundred fractions
Who knew I'd be the one pulling off the perfect crime
So here's my new line I'll change your mind and the metric system to time
Caused trouble all over town and it's bound to start a reaction
Metric time will come around it's gonna overtake your contraction I've found a way out yeah a way out of this stress
I made my time last and it's total success
Got my way of doing things and it's bound to gain your attraction
A hundred hours is my supply it's gonna give us all satisfaction
No doubt I'd be the one pulling off the perfect crime
So here's my new line I'll change my mind and the metric system to time
