Father Time

He wears no mask or cape.

     He's only human.

Robbery, 

     murder, 

            rape..

     His weapon is a gun.

Justice is his goal

     For those who break the law.

It's time to pay the toll.

     He asks them what they saw.

He's no Superman.

     Just go and ask him.

Heroics aren't his plan.

     Crime to him is sin.

He wears no mask or cape

     So don't you worship him.

Robbery, 

      murder,

               rape...

     He'll guide you to your fate.

Now night falls over us

    The moon is shining.

He wakes up with a rush

    With perfect timing.

Dons his mask and cape

    Still he's no hero.

Robbery, 

     murder, 

             rape...

    The clock's hit zero.

The sight of him strikes fear

    For those he's after.

Sometimes they shed a tear

    Then comes the laughter.

He breaks their sanity.

Robbery,

      murder,

                rape...

     Timing is the key.

For their lives they plea.

Daylight comes again.

    Rush and don't be late.

He has to find a man

    Who wears a mask and cape.

Robbery, 

    murder, 

             rape...

    He's no hero.
