Time Travellin' Blues (feat. James Rampton)

Woke up in ‘36

Watched the Berlin Olympics

They told some stories, oh they lied

It was the year that Kipling died

Woke up in ‘47

As Henry Ford went off to heaven

Commies scared the USA

And Pepper taught the band to play

Woke up in ‘58

Lolita sealed poor Humbert’s fate

When CND said ban the bomb

And Michael Jackson came along

Woke up in ‘69

With Vietnam the battle line

When they were landing on the moon

And Woodstock played a different tune

Back and forth in time again

Reliving every stupid trend

No better off per capita

I need a flux capacitor

Up and down the fam’ly tree

Watching winners make hist’ry

The gaps in truth they get wider

I need a hadron collider

Woke up in ‘71

The war on drugs has just begun

A bath-tub claims the lizard king

And Frazier rules the boxing ring

Woke up in ‘89

When Marty went a second time

Emporer Hirohito dies

And Dalai Lama wins peace prize

Woke up in ‘93

And saw a twelve year-old me

Nirvana take the music throne

I’m at the nightclub all alone

Woke up in 3010

Now I’m not going back again

No Earth, no life, no skin, no cells

There’s only me and HG Wells
