Sign of the Times

SONG 48...48 songs in 48 weeks...and this is a new kind for me...Dave wrote the bass riff and had me come up with lyrics and melody...I kind of like this...and of course, it's about everyone's favorite Van Nuys mechanic...

EMERGENCY

I…was born 15 days late
And I’ve been late
Every subsequent day

But I…today I can’t be late
If there ever was a time to be on time
It is today

**CHORUS**
Not quite…but we’re almost there
And just my luck
I’m sure the traffic will be stuck
Allright…I’ll take the back roads…I don’t care
Nothing’s going to ruin this day, you see
It’s an emergency

You…you can never expect
What the day will bring
Before the sun has set

I…everyday is just the same
But one day will be different
And everything will change

**Chorus**

Call the paramedics…call the EMT
Cause when I stand before you,
I know it will be difficult to breathe
Call 911…call someone to the scene
Send out somebody to resuscitate me…

You…arrest my heart
And if I live to tell the tale
I will blame this on the stars

**Chorus**

Allright…I am here
Outside on the street
Of the place we’re supposed to meet
Goodnight…my friends,
Wish me peace
I’m about to meet
My greatest emergency
