"Time-Dancin' Blues"

To the song "Buddy, Can You Spare A Dime?"
Lyrics by Batya "The Toon" Levin

(as sung by TimeDancer Brooklyn)

Once I lived in Scotland, I knew the year,
I knew the land in its prime
Once I lived in Scotland, and now I'm here,
Buddy, can you spare the time?

Once I lived in New York, brought by a spell,
A spell in Latin and rhyme
Once I lived in New York, but what the hell,
Buddy, can you spare the time?

Once upon a war, something was trapped
Full of its spite and fury and hate
A half a million years, the spell came unwrapped,
And me, I got stuck with the Gate!

Hey, where am I this time? Sixty B.C.?
Or is it twenty-oh-nine?
Hey, where am I this time? Uh, pardon me...
Buddy, can you spare the time?
