If I Had My Time Again

作词 : Tim Minchin
 作曲 : Tim Minchin
  Sometimes, it's like I'm stumbling forward
Hustled forward
Jostled from behind by time
Sometimes, it's like I'm being dragged
Yet always lagging
Trying to keep in time with time
But if I could stop the clock for just one day
If I could freeze a moment for a moment
Rest before the measure's over
Hold the beat for just one day

If I could wind it back and start afresh
Just a day to catch my breath
To make mistakes and set them right
Delay the coming of the night

If I had my time again
I would do it all the same
They say, but that's insane
Wouldn't you want to make a couple of changes?
Regrets, I'd not even have a few
If I could do this thing that you
Say you can do
I've always dreamt of learning how to dance
  Some days I go out without pants
  It's so exciting
  I slept with ninety
  A new beginning
  Percent of women
  Every morning
  In Punxsutawney
  To have the time to strive for more
  Between eighteen and eighty-four
And one dude when I was bored
  If I had my time again
I'd take the path less trodden
Avoid the crap I trod in
Read a lot of books
  I've stolen eighteen million bucks
  And I would worry less about my looks
  And I guess I'll do it again
  And I would be a lot more zen
  When
  And I would punch
  I
  A lot of men
  Had
  If I had
  My time again
  If I had my time again
I would do it all the same
They claim, but that's ridiculous
Surely you'd want to make a couple of fixes?
All those boxes left unchecked
All the dreams you left neglected
You'd go back and put it right
I've always fancied learning how to climb
  I once masturbated seven times
  I'd study math
  In the bath
  And search for meaning
  In one evening
  And I'd run up hills
  It wasn't fun, but still
  I'd learn to paint
  A man my age
  Just to know
It's nice to know
I can
  It's nice to know I can
  If I had my time again
I'd sample all the samples
Look at things from different angles
I would not do it all the same
If I had my time again

  If I had my time again
  The things I'd handle better
I would send my unsent letters
  I've started seven hundred fights
  If I had my time back
  And if you knew the endless nights
That I have wasted getting wasted
Contemplating different ways to suicide
  I would write and I would write
  And I have tried every food and every drink and every cheat

And I would bring joy to other (And every choice a thousand)
people's lives (times)
(And I daily eat about a dozen donuts and I don't know why)
And I would learn piano (And I don't know... why?)
And I would make a lot of
friends
If I had my time
  If I had my time again

I'd open all the doors I never (And I opened all the doors you)
looked behind before (never looked behind before)
And oh (And I)
The things I'd taste, the things
I'd try (I find the thing with these)
(I find the thing with these revolving rides)
And the misery I could prevent
(They're only fun 'cause you know they're going to end)
And I would make a lot of friends
If I had my time
Again
(Again, I have had it, I have had my time again)
