The Hives - Introduce the Metric System in Time lyrics
[The Hives - Introduce the Metric System in Time lyrics]
Been trying for all my life but
I can't add up your subtraction
Work, eat, play, then go to sleep
That won't get me no satisfaction
Gotta find a way out, yeah
A way out of this mess
So sick of trying to make my time
Last and ending up with less
Know your way of doing things
And it lost it's attraction
Why settle for twenty four when I
Can have a hundred fractions?
Who knew I'd be the one
Pulling off that perfect crime?
So here's my new line
I'll change your mind and the
Metric system in time
Caused trouble all over the town and
It's bound to start a reaction
Metric time will come around
It's gonna overtake your contraction
I've found a way out, yeah
A way out of this stress
I made my time last and it's total success
Got my way of doing things and
It's bound to gain your attraction
Hundred hours is my supply
It's gonna give us all satisfaction
No doubt I'd be the one
Pulling off the perfect crime
So here's my new line
I'll change my mind and the
Metric system in time
I can't add up your subtraction
Work, eat, play, then go to sleep
That won't get me no satisfaction
Gotta find a way out, yeah
A way out of this mess
So sick of trying to make my time
Last and ending up with less
Know your way of doing things
And it lost it's attraction
Why settle for twenty four when I
Can have a hundred fractions?
Who knew I'd be the one
Pulling off that perfect crime?
So here's my new line
I'll change your mind and the
Metric system in time
Caused trouble all over the town and
It's bound to start a reaction
Metric time will come around
It's gonna overtake your contraction
I've found a way out, yeah
A way out of this stress
I made my time last and it's total success
Got my way of doing things and
It's bound to gain your attraction
Hundred hours is my supply
It's gonna give us all satisfaction
No doubt I'd be the one
Pulling off the perfect crime
So here's my new line
I'll change my mind and the
Metric system in time
