Tá Na Hora

It's the tale of the wise Chinese

I spent ten years making plans to talk
With beings from outer space
With answers to give me
But when I was ready for contact
My girl told me: You’ll see it all in the movies

And where's the life?
Where's the experience?
They hand you everything ready, always in the name of science
Always in exchange for living it
And where's the life? (Life)
And my independence?

After a long wait
The one I wanted wanted to meet me
I took a decent shower
Brushed my teeth to kiss her
Saved a spot at the motel for our honeymoon
That I always waited for
But when the moment came, I didn’t get up

It's time to work
It's time to go home
It's time for the wife and while I move forward
My whole life falls behind
I have a lot of patience (–ence)
But where's my independence? (where is it?)

Throughout my whole life, I worked to retire
Paid life insurance to die without a hassle
After so much effort, the boss gave me a gold pen
Saying shove it in your pocket and figure it out

It's time for old age
It's time to lie down
It's time for the rocking chair
For the pajamas, for the medicine to take
Oh divine providence (–ence)
And my independence

Ah, and my life
And my life, where is it?
Where is it?
