Time Machine is a song by Rob Cantor and Joe Hawley. It is the 9th track on the album Hawaii: Part II.
History
Time Machine had been "scrapped" by the band from 2006-2012, as it was deemed "unworkable". It was one of a few songs debuted on 4/8/06 at The Blind Pig when the band played two sets back-to-back for two individual sold-out crowds.
Lyrics
Look Oh look at what you've done now to me Dead tired and ornery I'm leaving today, today Thinking of the way I used to spend the time I can see that I have overpaid Past is passed and rather than regret the old I can live it back the other way Just look Oh look at what you've done now to me Free floating temporally I'm leaving today, today I avoid the messiness of misery Playing in dimension number four I can get away to any time I like Space-time's any time and many more Live the dream with a time machine You've been waiting forever But you can make ever wait for you Do what you want to do Live the dream with a time machine You've been waiting forever You'll have time enough to spend some time alone Wait I await for all eternity Withstanding modernity Is where we must stay today Now I know the nature of no urgency Now I know why now is never gone Fleeting in this mode of making memories Keeping up this pace of keeping on Live the dream in a time machine You've been waiting forever But you can make ever wait for you Do what you want to do You'll have time enough to spend some time alone All alone Time alone
Demo 1 Lyrics
Look O-oh look at what you've done now to me All broken and ornery I'm leaving today There lies your ride, your light(?) adrift from / a different song Trying to get it right all afternoon And I'll meet you at the newly everlasting little bit When we didn't know, we didn't know the tune Live the dream with a time machine You've been waiting forever Now you make ever wait for you And what(?) you wanted to do Live the dream with a time machine I've been waiting forever Now I know ever waits for me Ever so patiently
Demo 2 Lyrics
Seventeen, What a time machine I've been waiting forever Now I know ever waits for me Ever so patiently Seventeen, for a beauty queen Is the measure I whether Now I know ever waits for me Ever so patiently Seventeen, for a time machine I've been waiting forever Now I know ever waits for me Ever so patiently
Demo 3 Lyrics
Look Oh look at what you've done now to me Dead tired and ornery I'm leaving today, today Thinking of the way I used to spend the time I can see that I have overpaid Past is passed and rather than regret the old I can live it back the other way See look Just look at when you've done now to me Free floating temporally I'm leaving today, today I avoid the messiness of misery Working in dimension number four I can get away at any time I like Any time I like forever more Live the dream in a time machine You've been waiting forever You can make ever wait for you Do what you want to do Live the dream in a time machine You've been waiting forever There'll be time enough to spend some time alone Wait I await for all eternity This endless modernity Forever today I stay Now I know the nature of emergency(?) Now I know why now is never gone (Now, now I know why- Now, now I know why- Gone) Never will I need another memory Kicking up this pace of keeping on Live the dream in a time machine You've been waiting forever You can make ever wait for you Do what you want to do Live the dream in a time machine You've been waiting forever There'll be time enough to spend some time alone All alone, all alone Time alone
