I wish I could go back in time.
Correct the errors in my prime
But correcting one destroys another
And the good I would not want to smother
So for all the mistakes I have inflicted
At least three time lines I have predicted
Cheated on the first wife
That error I would correct
But cheated on second wife
That error I would correct
But cheated on third wife
That error I would correct
But not every correction
Is a mistake on reflection
What i didn't realise
Is where the problem lies
So now I know I'm the mistake
I have to stop and make the brake
So back in time I speak to my dad
Tell him not to getΒ Β real mad
Explain on this night with my mother
Make dam sure your pens has a cover
