They Might Be Giants - Push Back The Hands lyrics

You would give up your right arm to go back To when you had a right arm You'll need some muscles To move it backward Push back the hands of time Broken gla** is glittering like diamonds Can't hear yourself thinking over the sirens Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time You wanna sing to drown out the car horn Squeeze your eyes shut and scream like a newborn Like a newborn babe Dawn breaks like a fallen vase Push back the hands of time Unwelcome vision of rosy fingers Push back the hands of time It wouldn't help you if you'd had any sleep It wouldn't save you from the mission creep Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Screeching tires but never a collision Endless day without a sunset provision Endless day Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time You wanna sing to drown out the car horn Squeeze your eyes shut and scream like a newborn Like a newborn babe Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time Push back the hands of time
