History is everything
Said the professor to the petitioner's girl
She, playing with her shoe,
Says I just want someone, I just want something new

I don't know what hit you
Don't care where ya been
I just know you gotta' go

Speed is everything
Said the co-pilot to the girl with the braid
She, looking round the room
Says I just want someone, I just want something new

I don't know what hit you
Don't care where ya been
I just know you gotta' go

Timing is everything
Said the conductcor to the boy half his age
He, tightening a screw,
Says I just want someone, I just want something new

I don't know what hit you
Don't care where ya been
I just know you gotta' go
