Lyrics Simple Minds

Simple Minds

Sign O' The Times

Oh Yeah

In France a skinny man

Died of a big disease with a litte name

By chance his girlfriend came across a needle

And soon she did the same

At homethere 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 Time

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling off a church

And killed everyone inside

You turn on the telly and every other story

Is tellin' you somebody died

Sister killed here baby 'cause she could affort to feed it

And we're sending people to the moon

In September my cousin tried Reefer for the very first time

Now he's doing Horse, it's June

Time Time

It's silly, no? When a rocket ship explodes

And everybody still wants to fly

Some say a man ain't happy

Unless a man truly dies

Oh why

Time Time

Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly

Neighbours just shine it on

But if a night falls and a bomb falls

Will anybody see the dawn

Time Time

It's silly, no? When a rocket ship explodes

And everybody still wants to fly

Some say a man ain't happy

Unless a man truly dies

Oh why

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 Hate...if it's a boy

Time Times

Time Time
