Ernie Buck - Takes No Time to Forget Lyrics




I was mired in a quandary
As they laid my soul to rest
Should I tell them i'm not dead yet
Or is this all just a test
Now there's three tonnes of dirt
And twenty-four relations stood
By the side of a pauper's grave pit
Lamenting how
He did some good
Oh please
Let me go
When i'm ready to meet Saint Peter
I'll be sure to let someone know
That it takes time to remember
It takes time to forget
When you add up all the good and bad
It turns out you were shit
Now there's high times a-comin
For someone else in another life
Where the gumdrop trees give blowjobs
So you take one for a wife
I was wallowing in limbo
When I heard an angel sigh
Seen a million strong men crumble
Who were unafraid to die
Now their tears are wreathed in fire
And their souls will never rest
No one left remembers fondly
To bear witness
To attest
Oh please
Don't let him go
When he's ready to face your Jesus
He'll be sure to let somebody know
That it takes time to remember
But it takes no time to forget
All the awful things you promised
That haven't really happened yet
I could rain down my vengeance
But it's too hard to commit
It's taken all this time so far to admit
That this is really it
