If I have understood correctly velocity equals the distance travelled divided by time
I've read every word ever printed on quantum physics and now it is time to try
I read your book, I found your notes, I dusted this thing off and turned on the key
The rumbling motors, the buzzing incredible gadgets, the hissing electricity

And now, the moment has come
I’m travelling back in time
They're running down the hall
I've started the countdown
They want me to stop
But I don't think so
I'm ready to go
Let's get the job done!

Beyond the paradoxical all the lights are dazzling
Past the planes and trains and satellite navigation
Past the time I spent today through the nearest wormhole
In a stunning ball of white the light explodes and lands on you

And you're five
Always running away when I was dying to kiss you and I
I don't want to cry, I don't want to see where the moving van takes you
so I travel on
Beyond the stars
At one hundred and eighty six thousand miles per second I can fly
Forward a few years, to nineteen hundred and seventy nine I caught a glimpse of the sky

They’re coming down the road
They're coming to get me
I never should have come
I hide the time machine
I'm running down the hall
I think I'm at my old house

Past the place where I grew up
Number 9 Lake Road
Past the swimming pool and Mabel Park and past Troy Clifford's house
To the Argonaut
To the fish and chip shop
Out the back and down the road and to the place I got beat up

Hey! Put that rock down!
Can't you see he's half your size?
Hey! He looks familiar
Oh my God it's me aged nine!

Put your shoes on and run away from here
I can't get involved this is all so weird
I'm meeting myself this is all so clear

All the things I lost
All the people I hurt
All the times I lied
All the moments wasted
All I never did
All the dreams I had
All the things I would change
I can change them
All the things I lost
All the people I hurt
All the times I lied
All the moments wasted

I'm gonna make right what I made wrong and change how the future has gone
Through appliance of science I'll take hold of my enemies
Take their obscenities
Kiss them and leave them like lovers who've gone
I'll call my dad, I'll tell him I miss him and tell my reflection it's not your fault
And now the moment has come
I’m travelling back in time

They're running down the hall
I've started the countdown
They want me to stop
But I don't think so
I'm ready to go
Let's get the job done!

Put your shoes on and run away from here
I can't get involved this is all so weird

Oh my God it's me aged 9!
Let's get the job done!

All the things I lost
All the people I hurt
All the times I lied
All the moments wasted
All I never did
All the dreams I had
All the things I would change
I can change them

Beyond the paradoxical all the lights are dazzling
Past the planes and trains and satellite navigation
Past the time I spent today through the nearest wormhole
In a stunning ball of white the light explodes into another moment
