I left the scene this morning at a quarter past 10,
I may not get what how or why but I'm pretty good at knowing when
It's time to go, now I'm on the road again,
'cause when it hits the fan, no you're not going to catch me downwind.
Dr. Gonzo said "when the going gets weird the weird turn pro",
Well that may be but as for me when things get weird I know
It's time to go, got to ramble on again,
'cause when it hits the fan, no you're not going to catch me downwind.
There's a pile of it on Wall Street and a big pile in Iraq,
It's piling up in the atmosphere and there ain't no turning back
It's time to go: turn on, tune in, and drop out again,
'cause when it hits the fan, no you're not going to catch me downwind.
This party's been a blast you all, I've had a lot of fun,
But things are getting out of hand so now I have to run
It's time to go, got to get back home again,
'cause when it hits the fan, no you're not going to catch me downwind.
Yeah when it hits the fan, no you're not going to catch me downwind.
When the shit hits the fan, you're not going to catch me downwind.
