Well, it came on fast when I heard the blast
And the main generator made a giant gasp
It was round about midnight, about half past
City went black as coal so fast
And oh, what a time, everybody was fazing, hazing

Oh, what a time, was time to be amazing
Time to lose all reason or rhyme
What a time
It was bad to worse, as the landlord cursed
And the water tank in the backyard burst
We were slipping and sliding and a , and a killing thirst
Couldn´t see a soul doing it in the dirt
Oh, what a time, everybody was praising, raising
Oh, what a time, was time to be amazing
Time to lose all reason or rhyme
What a time
A thousand people singing in the dark
Couldn´t see a thing
A thousand people singing in the dark, woah, woah, woah
And oh, what a time, everybody was razing, grazing
Oh, what a time, was time to be amazing

Time to lose all reason or rhyme
What a time
