TOMORROW AND TOMORROW AND TOMORROW (March 15) —
Time's not on our side, no siree
Time's not on our side, no siree
Time will undo you, e-ven-tu-al-ly
We are goin' down
The plague's here in our town
causin' mass cas-u-al-ties, yeah

Time's not on our side, no siree
Time's not on our side, no siree
This time no TV show, it’s re-al-it-y
We are goin' down
The plague is back in town
bringin' mass cas-u-al-ties

Go ahead, Donnie, go ahead, tell us more lies
And, Donnie, do all your greasy, greedy heart desires
Remember, remember survivors will realize
that you, you in-com-pe-tent fool,
saw them as in-con-tin-ent tools
before your time on Earth (and FOX) expired, yeah

TIME ain't on your side, no siree
TIME ain't on your side, guarantee
So no more fake covers (your sick fan-ta-sy)
The virus runs amok (like CDC warned)
We're shit-out-of-luck (with you in charge)
You fat cat's ass tro-phy

Time, time, time’s not on our side, no it’s not, I said
Time, time, time’s not on your side, you shot your wad, I said
Time, time, time’s nobody's friend, no it's not
