Time Travel (Got a Hook in Me)


Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

 

In disguise as a young man in the city,

But the bright young life

No longer belongs to me,

I ain’t no London dude,

I'm just a carbon copy,

Doing some travelling,

 

Time travel, baby

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

 

Seeing places that I knew in ’77,

When I was young

And in love with London town,

Please don’t ask me

Where those fleeting years have flown to,

They’ve just gone travelling,

 

Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

 

In disguise as a young man in the city,

But the bright young life

No longer belongs to me,

I’m a visitor

From a distant generation

Doing some travelling,

 

Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me,

Time travel, baby,

Set me free,

Time travel got a hook in me.
