Itâs yet a day, when in fact itâs tomorrow
What youâre feeling now, is just the dayâs joy and sorrow
Your futureâs secure though, forever somehow
Itâs already over, whatâs going on now
Itâs already happened, whatâs happening right now
When you come over here, you lose a whole day
Youâll never get it back until you get back that way
Out in the ocean they drew a date line
Use your imagination, you can stop time
Time stands still when you imagine that line
Just imagine it!
Well, heâs in some mower, just a few-hour flight
From the chicken days in Tongo, but itâs never quite right
Always hands the flowers, all of her day
But that man up in the morrow, else is just a day
âCause when you day to cross the date line, itâs never the day
After a while, itâs all a disaster
Thatâs when yesterday starts to feel like the day after
You factor in time zones and do all the math
And you equit the widow-water dreams down in the bath
When I come up, baby, back home there in L.A.
Thatâs all already happened, so thereâs not a lot to say
If I die here in Sydney, I tell her on the phone
I canât redeem the day I lost, and sheâll be all alone
I wonât get that day back âtil they ship my ashes home
All my ashes!
Remove your wrist watch and clunk your digital clock
If you donât wanna suffer from a temporal shock
The futureâs secure though, forever somehow
Itâs already over, whatâs going on now
Itâs already happened, whatâs happening right now
Thatâs right, now, itâs already past whatâs present right now
