Time Bomb Lyrics ......Enjoy!!!!
 
I'm a ticking time bomb
waiting to blow my top
no one would ever know
not until I blew up

no one would believe it
he was such a normal guy
shake their heads and wonder why

Martians fell from the sky
what would that do to god?
would we put the weapons down
or aim it up at the sky

no one would believe it
except the fucking nut jobs
They laugh and cry we told you so

Baby when I get home
i want to believe in Jesus
Hammer in the final nail
help me pick up the pieces

when everything starts to fall
so fast that it terrifies you
when will you hit the wall?
are you gonna learn to fly?

no one would believe it
except for all the people
watching as you fly away

baby when i get home
i want to pick up the pieces
hammer in the final nail
and lean me up against jesus

baby when i get home
i want to pick up the pieces
hammer in the final nail
i want to believe in jesus

great lyrics. Dave seems to be saying "fuck" in the new songs more. haha. pretty sure this is about someone who wants to commit suicide to be known as a Jesus/God-like figure. right?

These lyrics are strong, I like those for Why I Am and Lying In The Hands Of God, too... Seven is just dirty though

there is no need for this blatent cursing in dmb songs, the only time i ever thought it was appropriate was in Halloween, it seems like here as well as in other songs (if i had it all comes to mind) he is just saying "fuck" for the sake of saying it

cworty06 05-17-2009 09:57 AM

Re: Time Bomb Lyrics ......Enjoy!!!!
 
now all we need is the music!

Seven has great lyrics if you take it from a crazed persons perspective

The use in these lyrics is an adj. as in "fucking nut job", im sure dave could have been more creative and described nut job with another adj., where in halloween he used the word "fuck" as in "screwin" but you cant get the same negative verb feel by using another word

fuck as a verb, fuck as an adj, very different

Its been said that this song is the closest to halloween that youll get, so its probably going to fit.

We're all adults here....a curse word here and there is no issue to me.

Look to be great lyrics. I'm awful at interpreting lyrics, though. The part about "hammer in the final nail and lean me up against Jesus" seems to be a pretty direct reference to the Crucifiction.

Do that call that a Freudian Slip?
