[Intro]
Yeah, yeah yeah

[Verse 1]
If I could change the world
Like a fairy tale
I would drink the love
From your Holy Grail
I would start with love
Tell ol' Beelzebub
To get outta town
A-cause you just lost your job
How did we get so affected ('Cause I think)
Love is love reflected

[Chorus]
Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay
Come full circle

[Verse 2]
And if
There's a spell on you that
I could take away
I would do the deed
Yeah, and by the way
A-here's to Heaven knows
As the circle goes
It ain't right
I'm uptight
Yeah, and get off my toes
I used to think that every little thing I did was crazy
But now I think the Karma cops are coming after you

[Chorus]
Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay
Come full circle

[Verse 3]
Every time you get yourself caught up inside
Of someone else's crazy dream
Own it, yeah, that's a mistake
Everybody's gotta lotta nada killing them
Instead of killing time

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus]
Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay

Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay
Come full circle

[Outro]
Circle, circle, circle, circle, circle, circle, circle

Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your drinking glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off
We got Hell to pay
Come full circle

Aerosmith

Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as “The Bad Boys from Boston” and “America’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.” Formed in 1970, its founding members are Steven Tyler (vocals, keyboards, harmonica), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), Joe Perry (guitar, vocals) and Brad Whitford (guitar).

The band released their eponymous debut studio album in 1973 featuring the single “Dream On,” which remains one of their most popular songs. Their next four albums made them rock stars across the US and Canada, spawning the hits “Sweet Emotion”, “Last Child”, “Walk This Way”, “Back In The Saddle”, “Draw The Line”, and a cover of “Come Together” for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Soundtrack.

Before the release of their fifth album Draw The Line, the band’s substance abuse began to destroy them. Perry quit after a backstage fight with Tyler in 1979, and Whitfield left two years later. Despite moderate sales, the band’s fifth and sixth albums were considered flops when compared to the band’s past accomplishments. When Perry and Whitfield returned in 1984, their eighth album Done With Mirrors was also deemed unsuccessful despite strong reviews. Doug Herzog (MTV, VH1)
