Lyrics

Words & music by steven page and ed robertson

Woke up, I was on top of the world
There was a beautiful girl in the bed beside me
Rolled over, got a kiss on the ear
She said, "listen up, dear, there's a change inside me."

Can't say how frightened I am, how unenlightened I am
As I run for cover
Can't say how happy I am to be wrong.

She's on time, she's on time
She's on time, she's on time
She's on time
Halleluyah!
She's on time!
It's the safest time of the month, they say, for love

We move in a mysterious way
Cause when some holiday, I'd say we work harder
Not happy with a hug and a kiss
Although most stop at this, we go much, much farther
We can't stop fooling around, on the bed
On the ground, on the bathroom counter
We can't stop when all our systems are go

She's on time, she's on time
She's on time, she's on time
She's on time
Halleluyah!
She's on time!
It's the safest time of the month, they say, for love

She's on time, she's on time
She's on time, she's on time
She's on time
Halleluyah!
She's on time!
It's the safest time of the month, they say, for love

Between you and me, how happy we'll be
Repeating this cycle permanently
But where will we be when baby makes three?

I know that in a couple of years
I might lay down my fears and get psyched about it
Give in without an ounce of regret
Trying not to forget what I liked about it
One day I might look like a fool with a yard
And a pool and a station wagon
Till then I get down on my knees every day and pray

She's on time she's on time
She's on time she's on time
She's on time
Halleluyah!
She's on time!
It's the safest time of the month, they say, for love
