Well, the smart money's on Harlow
 And the moon is in the street
 The shadow boys are breaking all the laws
 And you're east of East St. Louis
 And the wind is making speeches
 And the rain sounds like a round of applause
 Napoleon is weeping in the Carnival saloon
 His invisible fianc is in the mirror
 The band is going home
 It's raining hammers, it's raining nails
 Yes, it's true, there's nothing left for him down here
 
    And it's Time Time Time
 And it's Time Time Time
 And it's Time Time Time
 That you love
 And it's Time Time Time
 
And they all pretend they're Orphans
 And their memory's like a train
 You can see it getting smaller as it pulls away
 And the things you can't remember
 Tell the things you can't forget that
 History puts a saint in every dream
 Well she said she'd steak around
 Until the bandages came off
 But these mamas boys just don't know when to quit
 And Matida asks the sailors are those dreams
 Or are those prayers
 So just close your eyes, son
 And this won't hurt a bit
  
    And it's Time Time Time
 And it's Time Time Time
 And it's Time Time Time
 That you love
 And it's Time Time Time
 
Well, things are pretty lousy for a calendar girl
 The boys just dive right off the cars
 And splash into the street
 And when she's on a roll she pulls a razor
 From her boot and a thousand
 Pigeons fall around her feet
 So put a candle in the window
 And a kiss upon his lips
 Till the dish outside the window fills with rain
 Just like a stranger with the weeds in your heart
 And play the fiddler off till i come back again
 
    And it's Time Time Time
 And it's Time Time Time
 And it's Time Time Time
 That you love
 And it's Time Time Time
