Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis - Sign 'O' The Times lyrics

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 k**ed everyone inside You turn on the telly and every other story Tellin' you somebody died Sister k**ed 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 [Incomprehensible] 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
