Time Trades - Jeffrey Lewis[00:00:00]
Time is gonna take so much away[00:00:14]
But there's a way that time can offer you a trade[00:00:17]
Time is gonna take so much away[00:00:20]
But there's a way that time can offer you a trade[00:00:23]
You gotta did something that you can get nicer at[00:00:27]
You gotta did something that you can get wiser at[00:00:30]
You better did something that you can get better at[00:00:33]
'Cause that's the only thing that time will leave you with[00:00:36]
'Cause time is gonna take so much away[00:00:40]
But there's a way that time can offer you a trade[00:00:43]
It might be cabaret it could be poetry[00:00:46]
It might be trying to make a new happy family[00:00:50]
It could be violin repair or chemistry[00:00:53]
But if it's something that takes lots of time that's good[00:00:56]
'Cause time is gonna take so much away[00:01:00]
But there's a way that time can offer you a trade[00:01:03]
Because your looks are gonna leave you[00:01:06]
And your citys gonna change too[00:01:10]
And your shoes are gonna wear through[00:01:13]
Yeah time is gonna take so much away[00:01:17]
But there's a way that you can offer time a trade[00:01:20]
You gotta did something that you can get smarter at[00:01:23]
You gotta did something you might just be a starter at[00:01:26]
You better did something that you can get better at[00:01:30]
'Cause that's the thing that time will leave you with[00:01:33]
And maybe that's why they call a trade a trade[00:01:50]
Like when they say the[00:01:53]
You should go and learn a trade[00:01:54]
The thing you did don't have[00:01:56]
To be to learn a trade[00:01:57]
Just get something back from[00:01:59]
Time for all it takes away[00:02:01]
It could be many things it could be anything[00:02:03]
It could be expertise in[00:02:06]
Middle Eastern traveling[00:02:08]
Something to slowly sow[00:02:09]
The balance life's unraveling[00:02:11]
You have no choice you have[00:02:13]
To pay time's price[00:02:14]
But you can use the price to[00:02:16]
Buy you something nice[00:02:18]
Something you can only buy with lots of time[00:02:20]
So when you're old you blow[00:02:23]
Some whippersnapper's mind[00:02:24]
It might be researching a book[00:02:26]
That takes you seven years[00:02:28]
A book that helps to make the path[00:02:30]
We take to freedom clear[00:02:31]
And when you're done[00:02:33]
You see it started with a good idea[00:02:34]
One good idea could cost[00:02:36]
You thousands of your days[00:02:38]
But it's just time that you'd be spending anyway[00:02:40]
You have no choice you have to pay time's price[00:02:43]
But you can use the price to[00:02:46]
Buy you something nice[00:02:48]
So I've decided recently[00:02:51]
To try to trade more decently[00:02:54]
