Time - D Line Blues

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/37039
It was another normal Thursday, I wanted coffee in the worst way
When the sip hits my lips I got to spit what the verse say
I saw a man playing a trombone and singing on the corner
He recited poetry, no one response like a coroner
I saw an old man with tremors looking out the window of the bus
I saw billboards and commercials act as spectacles for lust
I saw a car crash, I heard fate laugh
I saw the geese land in the Platte river with a splash
I saw a woman have a seizure, I saw a kid that wouldn't leave her
I saw a boy with Downs Syndrome holding hands with his teacher
I saw dust on justice, and news with no substance
I saw a cop beating a man as he busted his lip
I saw a couple break up, the man started to cry
I saw graffiti on a wall, it said ready to die
I heard ambulances as I saw death dancing
Chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

It was another average Tuesday, I was taking the train home
Fresh from the airport, my brain started to roam
A man followed me and asked me for some change
I gave him what I could before they kicked him off the train
A woman came on the rail with 2 kids and a stroller
The businessmen looked away and wouldn’t move over
I got up and gave her my seat, she sat down and smiled
I wondered why these suit and ties wouldn't move for a child?
The train stopped on 16th, a blind man came on
He sat down and started to sing a Paul Robeson song
The kid next to me didn't hear it, he was texting
The man's voice humbled me I was grateful for the lesson
The girl behind us was on the phone and started to cry
The old woman stared out the window, I saw the struggle in her eyes
I heard ambulances as I saw death dancing
Chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

It was just another average, cliché Wednesday
I had my notebook on the train, so listen to what the pen say
I saw a man with a sunken face grinding his teeth
I saw a woman thumbing her rosary filled with grief
I saw a drone, I saw a foreclosed home
I saw a poem in it all as they listened on my phone
I saw a dead pigeon, I saw oil in the sewer
A bee landed on the window, every year I see fewer
I saw the police approach a man with their guns aimed
I saw a kid tagging a train, searching for fame
I saw struggle in it all as I wrote away the pain
The windshield wipers squeaked as the sky leaked rain
I saw a dead dog lying in the middle of the road
I saw an elderly woman crying another story untold
I heard ambulances as I saw death dancing
Chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

It was another normal Monday, I was sitting by the park
Sipping on some coffee when a dog started to bark
2 men were fighting, a drug deal gone bad
They ran away from the cops, later a junkie found the stash
I saw the cops telling a homeless man to move on
I see handcuffs not homes, this scene is all wrong
I see a blind mother pulling a stroller down Broadway
Another strong woman with a bullet proof soul like Sade
I saw a dead cat in the gutter, no life in its eyes
I see dreamers on the corner like monarch butterflies
I see a mother in sanctuary, separated from her kids
I see no justice, they make it illegal to live
I see ICE outside and I’m not talking about frozen water
I'm talking bout the ICE that'll separate you from your daughter
I heard ambulances as i saw death dancing
Chaos never dies, the city holds me for ransom

Biography

edit bio
Time was a rock band from Yugoslavia that made a significant impact on the music scene in the 1970s. Formed in 1971 by Dado Topić, who had previously been a member of Korni Grupa, the band quickly gained a following with their unique blend of progressive rock and jazz influences.

The original lineup of Time included Dado Topić on vocals, Tihomir “Pop” Asanović on organ, Vedran Božić on guitar, Mario Mavrin on bass, Ratko Divjak on drums, and Brane Lambert Živković on piano and flute. Over the years, the lineup changed frequently, but the core members remained dedicated to creating innovative and captivating music.

Time released three albums during their time together, each showcasing their musical versatility and talent. Their first album featured a prominent Hammond organ, piano, and flute, while their second album had a harder sound with several ballads. The third album introduced a jazz-funk production style, further expanding their musical repertoire.

Some of Time's most popular songs include “Da li znaš da te volim”, “Rock ‘n’ roll u Beogradu”, and “Istina mašina”, which showcased their ability to create memorable and engaging music that resonated with audiences.

After disbanding in late 1977, Dado Topić embarked on a successful solo career, but the legacy of Time continued to live on. In 1998 and 2001, the band reunited for a limited number of live concerts, delighting fans with their timeless music and energetic performances.

Today, Time still plays together as a rock trio, continuing to captivate audiences with their unique sound and enduring musical legacy. Their influence can be heard in the work of many contemporary artists, solidifying their place in the history of Yugoslavian rock music.
