JR JR - Philip The Engineer Lyrics
Philip the Engineer sits down
and lays the blueprint on the ground.
At this point he's the only one who can read them.
It's been five years since the sky crashed down
the city has moved underground,
But he knows,
he knows,
they're slowly caving in,
caving.
I don't want to be the one who says it's broken, but
somebody's got to tell it like it is.
I don't want to kill the vibe, or burst your bubble, babe,
but time, makes grown-ups out of kids.
Harold Bronson grew up here,
an apprentice to the engineer.
He's never seen the sun or stars before.
And he's studying all night and day,
he's losing sleep to learn his trade,
but he's noticed a flaw in Philip's equation.
And he knows,
he knows,
they're all in danger,
danger.
I don't want to be the one who says it's broken, but
somebody's got to tell it like it is.
I don't want to kill the vibe, or burst your bubble, babe,
but time, makes grown-ups out of kids.
Ohhhh, time makes grown-ups out of kids.
But you're so fragile already, ohhhhh,
and we all feel what's heavy,
'cause heavy things must all fall down.
So should I tell the truth if you're not ready.
I don't want to be the one who says it's broken, but
somebody's got to tell it like it is.
I don't want to kill the vibe, or burst your bubble, babe,
but time, makes grown-ups out of kids.
Ohhhh, time makes grown-ups out of kids.
You can't stop the time.
So kiss your kids goodbye.
You can't stop the time.
So kiss your kids goodbye.

JR JR Philip The Engineer Comments
Best fucking band ever!!
This song is far too underrated for how great it is
Stop fuckin with this digi shinz, J J. Too good for that. Bring the reels.
5 years since the sky crashed down.
Harold Bronson hasn't seen the sky before.
Harold notices flaw in Philip's equation.
Smartest 5 year old ever.
Harold is born a while after that line is said, I assume. Phillip knows about the problem for a really long time.
Best on album?
+J Kilroy with the fewest views of the album...
+J Kilroy Either this or Break My Fall.
Why so underrated
i dunno my dude
Absolutely
